Arts In

I think I have mentioned this before, but I am one of the directors for my county Arts In this summer. Just to reiderate: Arts In is a Minnesota performing arts program, in which 4-H members (generally students from 5th grade to the first year of college) gather to learn a show and then perform the show.
The Arts In show has a basic (but fun) storyline, with 7 to 9 songs throughout the show. This year, we wrote a show based on superheros.

This Year's Storyline:
The citizens of Metropolis gather to welcome back their superheros from saving the world. After telling the citizens of their super-saving deeds, the superheros must fly off to the library and reassemble the book shelf.
But, after many attempts to fly to no avail, the superheros begin to wonder what has happened-why wont their powers work? The villians show up, and show that they have stollen the superheros powers.
The citizens of metropolis are eager to assist the heros in getting back the power, but are denied the opportunity. The hero's refuse to be helped by amatures-the heros have always been the ones to save the day, why should they need the citizens to help them now?
"Ok," say the citizens, "so what are you going to do, you don't have superpowers anymore." Coming to that realization, the heros start to loose hope.
The citizens tell the heros that they will help them to fight against the villians, with the power of numbers! Together, they will defend Metropolis! After singing a totally awesome song, three citizens rush to show everyone that they have the superheros powers back!
And shockinly enough, the citizens have the villians in tow. The villians apologize for taking the powers, and tell everyone that they want to help protect the city too!
The end!
