The presentation started with the creative team and a discussion, followed by an audience Q & A.   The musical was based on a book for children written in 1975 by Natalie Babbitt and became an instant classic.  In 1988, eleven year old Chris Miller read this book as did Nathan Tysen.
In 2009 both Miller and Tysen began their songwriting collaboration, deciding that this book about a family with a potion that gave them eternal life, the Tucks, should be a musical.
