The Plot

PAC-MAN is in love! And what a star his sweetheart is, with her red hair ribbon and long eyelashes. Just like her leading man, MS. PAC-MAN chomps her way through mazes as she battles four ghosts. Round and round, back and forth, across the stage she races as she gobbles up dots, energizers and tantalizing goodies. Can she escape the marauding ghosts? Will it be the final curtain for her? Will PAC-MAN ever see his lady love again?

The Curtain Rises

MS. PAC-MAN appears at center stage. To earn her curtain call, she must eat all the dots in each maze before she is gobbled up herself by the four ghosts.

But can she stall them? If she swallows one of the four energizers, the ghosts change into blue costumes. With only seconds to act she must chase them down and devour them before they change back into their everyday clothes.
