Publisher's Synopsis
"Twimfina" is a secular, public-domain musical that celebrates active pacifism. It is scored for piano and quite a few singers/actors of all ages, making it ideal for a progressive community theater company. It is divided into 21 segments, many of which can stand alone. Therefore an acting group could perform short individual segments of the 2.5 hour play. Inspired by the book "Aren't We the Lucky Ones," this musical tells the story of Twimfina, a young science-minded woman who sees the world as a machine and herself as a machinist. She doesn't put people into groups, and doesn't regard anybody as "good" or "bad." She doesn't recognize boundaries or barriers between people, but instead accepts everybody as an equal. In this story, Twimfina will find herself in situations where her ideals will be put to the test. This is Edition 30 of the book. There are still a few illustrations yet to be completed. Changes made to the script are always noted on the twimfina.com website. (Indeed the entire book can be freely downloaded from there).
