Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing

______________________________________________________________

Nine-year-old Peter Hatcher’s life would be sweet if it weren’t for Fudge, his toddler terror of a brother.  Two Beans Productions captures all the humor, sibling rivalry and elementary school angst of Judy Blume’s book in their play Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing! 

Fudge seems to get away with everything, whether he’s throwing a tantrum at the shoe store, acting like a bird on the jungle gym and knocking out his two front teeth, or scribbling all over Peter’s homework!  It’s enough to make him feel like a fourth grade nothing! 

When Peter’s beloved pet turtle disappears, he just knows that Fudge is behind it.  It’s the last straw – how can he get his parents to pay attention to him for a change?
