Synopsis
Forty whip-smart and brutally honest children are asked about love, life, and the world. From their fresh perspectives four adult actors speak their exact words and make them their own!
Using the words of a younger generation, new ideas and experiences come to life through the voices of adults. Hilarious, profound, and surprising, CHILD-ish is an intergenerational new twist on ‘verbatim theatre’ from a creative team that spans ages 6-77. (tarragontheatre.com)
