NEW AMERICAN KID - DVD
This incredibly inventive production in the form of a children's drama is meant to explain to kids the difficulties encountered by a non-English speaking immigrant child and his family.
THE NEW AMERICAN KID has been one of the most successful productions ever mounted by the Green Thumb Theatre, playing to thousands of school children across the United States and abroad. The key to this success is the "gibberish" language spoken by the "American" characters throughout the play, a language that is comprehensible through the play's lively, often humorous action. This device enables young audiences to identify directly with the confusion and disorientation experienced by immigrant families as they adjust to a new life in America.
