A boy named Alex and a polar bear named Ursula have a problem.  It’s much too warm —  at the north pole, where Ursula used to live, and at Alex’s air-conditioned house, where she has moved.  Together the bear and the boy—and everyone on earth—must discover ways to use less power and get along just fine.

It's getting warmer at the North Pole so Ursula the Polar Bear (Tracy Rowe Mutz, left) cools off at Alex's (Daniel Chaffin). In his house, the air conditioning is running full-time (along with all the other appliances) and using too much energy in SCR's Educational Touring Production You're Getting Warmer, which travels to elementary schools through May 3.
