Fidget
by Bradley Hayward Canadian Author
Why do kids find it so hard to stop moving?
Kids are constantly being told to hold still. But that’s impossible when all they want to do is move forward at warp speed.
From disputes with friends and troubles at home, to negative self-image and unfortunate sugar highs, this vignette play explores the need to fidget in a world that gets more stressful every day. Jam-packed with rich characters and unique theatricality, this entirely gender flexible play is sure to entertain audiences of all ages.
