A Short Comedy for Young Audiences by Kathryn Walat

Miss Electricity was originally commissioned and produced by La Jolla Playhouse, California
Directed by Maggie Sniffen
“Don't we all want to be special? Don't we all want to be SUPER? Violet sure does, but maybe being struck by lightning isn't all it's cracked up to be.“
Ten-year-old Violet is determined to show the world, not to mention the cool kids at school, just how special she is. With the help of her assistant Freddy, she sets out to break a world record, but becomes accidentally extraordinary when she's struck by lightning — twice — and gains control over all things electric. Under the name Miss Electricity, Violet zaps her way through circuits, bullies, and tests, but could lose everything when the power goes to her head.
