MTI has secured licensing rights to the beloved children's stage show, Spookley The Square Pumpkin: The Musical.

Based on the wildly popular books and animated special, with book and lyrics by Spookley author Joe Troiano and music composed by Jeffrey Zahn, Spookley The Square Pumpkin: The Musical combines the spectacle and joy of Halloween with delightful songs that people of all ages will love! Airing every year on Disney, the animated television special, adapted from the bestselling Spookley book series, has been a long time Halloween tradition for families all across the country. A musical with a big heart, Spookley The Square Pumpkin: The Musical is no tricks and nothing but a treat for all audiences!

Spookley The Square Pumpkin: The Musical tells the story of a square pumpkin living in a round pumpkin patch on Holiday Hill Farm. Shunned by the other pumpkins, Spookley is befriended by Edgar, Allan and Poe, three hilarious spiders, who convince him that, square or not, he has a right to be the Pick of the Patch. Encouraged by kindly Jack Scarecrow, Spookley tries his best, but he isn't sure he has what it takes until a mighty storm threatens Holiday Hill Farm. Spookley realizes it is up to him and his square shape to save the day. As a result, all the pumpkins in the patch learn that the things that make you different make you special.

The original production of Spookley The Square Pumpkin: The Musical , directed and conceived by Jeff Frank and First Stage, premiered in Milwaukee in 2015 to sold out performances. In 2016, a second production was mounted by Stages Theatre Company in Minneapolis and it broke all prior attendance records for the season.

"It has been an honor for me to work with so many talented people in bringing Spookley's story and these songs to life on the stage. And it has been a thrill to watch audiences of kids and parents respond so positively, especially knowing that many of the kids are experiencing musical theater for the first time," said Joe Troiano who also wrote the children's book The Legend of Spookley The Square Pumpkin as well as the animated special.

MTI's President and CEO, Drew Cohen stated, " Spookley , with its universal themes and delightful score is perfect for all audiences, year-round. Of course, with a main character who is a pumpkin, it is uniquely well-suited for the fall season and we are thrilled to make Spookley available in time for Halloween season this year. Spookley's track record of commercial success reflects how beloved this character-and indeed this musical-have become."

Synopsis [ ]

Spookley the Square Pumpkin is found in the pumpkin patch by two bats, Boris and Bella. The round pumpkins tease Spookley, which makes him sad. At first the other pumpkins make fun of him because Spookley is square. Among the other pumpkins in the patch are Bobo, a vain female pumpkin; and Tom, which is actually two different-sized pumpkins (Big Tom and Little Tom) held together on the same vine.

Jack (the scarecrow) organizes the pumpkins in the patch to compete in the 'Jack-a-Lympics' contest, an athletic competition designed to determine the "Pick of the Patch" for Halloween. Three spiders (Edgar, Allen, and Poe), who show sympathy for Spookley, decide to help him in the 'Jack-a-Lympics' just so they can help themselves to the prize, a crown made of candy corn. Throughout the competition, Big Tom and Little Tom are repeatedly disqualified for using their vine to give them an unfair advantage, leaving third-place finisher Bobo the winner of most of the events. Spookley turns out to be a total failure at all the events, leaving him discouraged.

As Bobo is crowned the winner and the spiders abandon Spookley to help themselves to her crown, a severe wind storm hits the pumpkin patch, pushing the pumpkins all over and pinning Jack under a flaming tree branch. Spookley, because he is square, does not roll away when the wind hits him (unlike the other pumpkins) and, through some moments of ingenuity, rescues Jack from being burned alive and his fellow pumpkins from being washed away in the river. The other pumpkins show gratitude for saving them.

After the storm, the farmer goes into the patch to assess the damage and discovers Spookley. The farmer is charmed by Spookley's square shape and decides to make the square pumpkin his own personal jack-o'-lantern.
