When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have
just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday, a new musical based on the
celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic,
and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each
other's shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another's struggles, learn
self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a
mother and daughter.
