Life Doesn’t Frighten Me: I Am Fearless Royalty

“Shadows on the wall / Noises down the hall / Life doesn't frighten me at all” begins Dr. Maya Angelou’s famous poem which serves as the foundation for Paige Hernandez’s Life Doesn't Frighten Me: I Am Fearless Royalty.

This play, co-commissioned by Children’s Theatre of Charlotte, Dallas Children’s Theater, The Rose Theater of Omaha, and Children’s Theater of Madison, stars four heroes as they conquer their fears using heart, soul, body, and mind. With original music from Grammy-nominated Kris Funn and themes inspired by actual students across the country, this show is a moving multicultural performing arts experience that reminds everyone that Life Doesn't Frighten Me: I Am Fearless Royalty.
