The Golden Peptide
by Timothy Goddard
Directed by Kim Treague
June 3 – 6, 2004
Cynthia is a red blood cell dissatisfied with her lot in life. Bored with her job carrying oxygen to all parts of the body, she tells her troubles to Ozzy and Chuck, two fat cells, who tell her the story of the legendary Golden Peptide. The Golden Peptide, they tell her, will grant its posessor five wishes. Cynthia decides to go in search of the Golden Peptide, and once she finds it she wishes herself into a variety of different cells: a muscle cell, a neuron, and a white blood cell. However, she soon discovers that while her new jobs are very exciting, they aren't quite what she expected. Cynthia begins to think that being a red blood cell wasn't all that bad, but when she turns herself into a bone cell and finds herself unable to move, will she ever be able to return to her old life?

When the map to a pyramid lost for 3000 years is discovered, it is up to
the greatest adventure hero of all time to unlock its mysteries... Dr.
Illinois Jane, cartographer extraordinaire! Along with her faithful
sidekick, Sid Knickerbock, Illinois Jane must stop the evil Frenchman Pierre
LeMalodeur from reaching the pyramid first and stealing the Elixir of Life,
the secret to immortality. With it the Frenchman would be free to
wreak his fiendish French plans on an unsuspecting world. But our
illustrious heroine and reluctant sidekick are hot on his trail, determined to
ensure that in the time-honored way of things the villain is vanquished.
Along the way Illinois Jane must brave booby traps beyond description,

A clever retelling of the classic Grimm Brothers' fairy tale in which a brave young soldier seeks to save twelve beautiful princesses from a dark and mysterious fate. The eldest princess is due to be married to a hard-hearted prince she doesn't love. What she does love is dancing, just like her mother before her.
