Based on Robert Fulghum’s best-selling books, Kindergarten takes a funny, insightful, heartwarming look at what is profound in
everyday life. This tightly woven adaptation has earned standing ovations from Singapore to Prague— from L.A. to D.C. It’s an
evening of theatrical storytelling in revue format, with monologues, dialogues, and multiple voice narration, enhanced through the
use of live piano underscoring, which provides fluidity, charm and emotional texture. The delightful stories feature colorful
characters such as: a shy little boy who insists on playing the “pig” in his class production of Cinderella and steals the show; a man
whose dream of flying carries him high over Los Angeles...in a lawn chair buoyed by surplus weather balloons; a “mother of the
bride” who’s staged a perfect wedding—until the bowling ball of fate rolls down the aisle; and a modern-day Greek philosopher
who finds the meaning of life in a piece of broken mirror from World War II. These stories celebrate our very existence, from the
whimsy of childhood to the wisdom of old age.
