Based on Alan Madison’s book “Velma Gratch and the Way Cool Butterfly,” this breezy musical revival from Vital Theater Company opens the troupe’s 2014-15 season. Also incorporating a way cool science lesson, the show follows the adventures of Velma, whose entry into first grade is complicated by the near-perfect reputations of her older sisters. Michelle Elliott and Danny Larsen wrote the musical, which investigates what happens when something does single out Velma: the monarch butterfly that lights on her finger during a class trip and won’t leave.
