That’s Weird, Grandma: Holiday Extravaganza

That’s Weird, Grandma features adaptations of stories written during Play Makers Laboratory’s (PML) creative writing residencies in Chicago elementary schools. PML’s ensemble of professional actors, comedians and musicians bring the young authors’ stories to life as raucous sketches, songs and movement pieces, performing first for students in their schools and then for the public. These stories – from hilarious dialogues between unlikely characters to poignant pleas for social change – resonate with adults while celebrating the imaginations of young people.
