When I was seven, against all odds, my uncle scored FULFILLMENT tickets for the Jackson 5 Reunion Tour. My first concert! I’ll never forget the joy, the ecstasy of hearing that music live on stage. When I was 14, against MARKETING their better judgement, my parents let my friend Rob and me head to the Spectrum in Philly (on our own!) to see David Bowie. Again, I will never forget TECHNOLOGY the immediacy of that music, the spectacle of that show. There is just something about our first concert experiences. Something profound. Something lasting. MERCHANDISE A great one (like, say, the Jackson 5 or David Bowie) One Company can alter the course of your life and inspire you for years to come. So, what if this play is the first rock ’n’ roll concert for some of our audience members? This is a responsibility we couldn’t take lightly. We knew 5 we needed to capture the energy and spectacle of a rock ’n’ roll show.

From who dare to question. A beautiful story that reveals design to delivery, we make ideas happen. that sometimes our deepest fears are unfounded. That when a courageous soul dares to ask those provocative questions, it can create room for deeper understanding and acceptance among the rest of the community. But fear not, this is not some dry morality tale. This is Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed: The Rock Experience!

the shutting out. Once they are able to open their minds and begin to contemplate a whole other way of being, they actually discover all kinds of freedom, joyfulness, and playfulness inside themselves.”

While the naked mole rats are discovering how to open themselves up to new possibilities, Morris hopes the audience will take a page out of their book and ask how they can do the same in their own lives.

“It’s just such a wonderful invitation to all ages to consider, ‘What limiting beliefs are we holding onto without even realizing it, and what might be available to us if we give ourselves an opportunity to try thinking a different way?’” Director Leora “We’re pretty deeply into drawing inspiration from Morris and Assistant and quoting specific rock figures,” reveals Morris.

THE LIFE OF A MOLE RAT Fun Facts from Zoo Atlanta

Found beneath the grasslands of eastern Africa, naked mole rats spend their entire lives underground. Truth is stranger than fiction when it comes to these subterranean mammals – check out some fun facts about nature’s weirdest underground families. NEW ART COMING? • Naked mole rats are one of only two mammal species that are eusocial (the other is a cousin, the Damaraland mole rat). “Eusocial” refers to a lifestyle spent in the service of a queen, just like bees and ants. • The average colony size is around 70 individuals, but colonies numbering almost 300 have been documented. These super- sized colonies can take up more space than five football fields. • Anyone who is not the queen has a designated role such as soldier or worker. Soldiers defend the colony from predators, largely other subterranean animals such as snakes or unwelcome mole rats who are strangers to the colony. Naked mole rats use smell to tell friend from foe. • When a female becomes queen, she grows physically larger, thanks to a bizarre spontaneous increase in the distances between the vertebrae in her spine. She is the only member of the colony whose size is different from the others. She is also the only female in the colony who reproduces. • While the queen may rule all, she isn’t born to royalty. She has fought fellow females to earn her leadership. When a queen

alliancetheatre.org | @alliancetheatre encoreatlanta.com | 15

dies, other females will fight for the right to the queendom. • Naked mole rat colonies use very complex systems of burrows. These feature different “rooms” for different purposes, including food storage and toilet area. Because so much of their time is spent digging, naked mole rats have highly specialized teeth that can move independently of one another, like scissors, or work as a unit, like chopsticks. Their lips are capable of closing behind their incisors to keep dirt from entering their mouths. • The name “naked mole rat” is somewhat of a misnomer. While they are classified as rodents, naked mole rats are not rats; they are most closely related to porcupines, chinchillas and guinea pigs (they have no relation to moles). Nor are they entirely naked; they have sensitive whiskers on their faces and tails, as well as hair between their toes that help their feet function as brooms to sweep away soil. • Naked mole rats fascinate the scientific community in that they do not get cancer, are insensitive to pain, and have long lifespans – the longest of any rodent species. In this way, these cool creatures may aid in discoveries that could improve human healthcare.

Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed is such a cute and sweet story! If you ever read the book by Mo Willems, you will see the story follows the book very well. The story, without spoiling the show, is about Wilbur the naked mole rat. He is a normal rat until clothes fall from the sky and he sees that the clothes are nice. His friends, on the other hand, think it’s disgraceful for a naked mole rat to get dressed. They go to the leader and the leader thinks if it doesn’t hurt anyone, why would it be bad? It’s definitely a show that kids can follow along with and parents will be kept amused and delightfully entertained.

Finnian Sandifer, The songs are very catchy. After you leave the show, you Alliance Theatre will most likely be humming the melody as you walk out. Education Student The songs are all different – some are rock but others are jazzy. They make you want to jump out of your seat and start dancing. The songs also have rhythms and rhymes that make them fun to hear. Also, kids will get them stuck in their heads which is half good, half a burden.

This show is a good thing for adults to watch with kids because it also has an interesting message for for college everybody. There was one point in the story where the mole rats told the leader they didn’t like that Wilbur for life wore clothes. The leader thought and thought and said, “Hey, this doesn’t bother us!” So everyone accepted forever him. So what does this say? Well, I feel it says we should Holy Spirit Prep embraces the accept each other. Think about it: as the leader said, if traditions of Catholic education to something doesn’t hurt us, why should it be considered form students of deep faith, advanced disgraceful? This is very relevant today with LGBTQ+ intellect, and heroic virtue. rights, as well as race and gender equality. None of these things hurt people yet many still harass people who are different than them.

Whether you agree with me or not, it’s a spectacular way to pass the time. Do you have a different message to get from this? Does it affect the world differently? Who knows but you. An independent Catholic school for students age 6 months-12th grade. holyspiritprep.org

Frank & Llen Ryan Marietta, Georgia B:8.875" S:8.125" T:8.625"

FRANK&LLENCARE You know the “in sickness and in health” marriage vow? In 53 years, Frank and Llen Ryan have really put it to the test. Heart issues, skin cancer, prostate cancer, debilitating back pain — they’ve faced it all together. And with Wellstar’s expert care, things have come out “for better” — not worse. These days, Llen gardens and walks daily, thanks to a successful spine surgery. And Frank fights back against Parkinson’s with the help of our special boxing classes, prescribed by his Wellstar neurologist. No two happily married couples are exactly alike, and at Wellstar, we would never treat them that way. wellstar.org/peoplecare
