Having spent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents, nothing could prepare Dora for her biggest challenge yet: high school. When her parents mysteriously disappear while searching for the Lost City of Gold, Dora must swing into action and lead a group of ill-equipped high schoolers on a quest to save them. It is a high-stakes mission as Dora and her new friends navigate the jungle, outrun treasure hunters, and solve ancient puzzles to unlock the mystery of the fabled city.
Ophelia
Drama PG-13
One of the world’s greatest dramas is turned on its head through a bold and new perspective. Set in medieval Denmark and spoken in a modern tongue, it recalibrates the classic Shakespearean tragedy of Hamlet so that its unspoken, complex heroine may share her own story. As a rebellious and motherless child, Ophelia is taken into Elsinore Castle by Queen Gertrude as one of her most trusted ladies-in-waiting. Soon enough, Ophelia captures the affections of the young Prince Hamlet.
