How does the little boy get over that big alligator that lives under his bed?  Or another child command his toy soldiers to protect him from the Big Nightmare that lives in his closet—or is it the Big Nightmare that needs to be protected?  And what about the little girl who lassos the Silly Scary Thing that lives in her farm house attic, to show it to her parents?  What would you do?  Omaha Theater’s original musical production is designed with vivid and imaginative costumes and scenery, where the Alligator under your bed, the Nightmare in your closet and the Thing in your attic become your best friend.
