How to Eat Like a Child

It’s a comedic crash course on the essential skills of childhood through teen years. Through 23 hilarious lessons, children teach the audience the joys and sorrows of being a kid. The cast age range is 8 to 17. There are group musical numbers, solo songs and more. “How To Eat Like A Child” is based on the book of the same name by Delia Ephron.
