Britt Menzies and her StinkyKids are having quite a year!

Earlier this week, Britt wrote us to share the news that the Off Broadway Alliance named StinkyKids The Musical the Best Family Show for the 2011-2012 Season. Then she followed that up with a note saying that she would be visiting fellow Honoree Alisyn Camerota on the set of Fox and Friends this weekend!

StinkyKids The Musical has been playing to sold-out audiences since its debut at the Vital Theatre in March 2012. From Peter Breger, chairman of the Off Broadway Alliance:

“We’re thrilled to announce StinkyKids The Musical as Best Family Show. There were many terrific shows for children this season and StinkyKids was bursting with great storytelling and wonderful musical numbers for families.”

Stephen Sunderlin, Artistic Director at the Vital Theatre added that “StinkyKids The Musical is our best-selling regular season show to date and we’re thrilled to be recognized by the Alliance.”
