Grace for President tells the story of a girl, who, stunned to discover that all U.S. presidents have been men, decides to kick off her own political career by running for president of her class. She faces off against a popular boy and wins in a surprising way. The lesson? That women - whether Grace, Kamala Harris or anyone in the audience - can run for office, win, and lead.
Based on the book by Kelly S. DiPucchio and adapted for the stage by Joah Cushing, this musical about girl power is an entertaining hit for all ages and audiences.
CCT is excited to bring this musical production of Grace for President to the CMFA stage. In addition to offering an inspiring perspective on the opportunities for women in America, the show serves as a great primer for young people on the electoral process and drives home the critical role of character in leadership. With a perfect balance of humour, music, and education - it’s a great fit for the whole family.
