Highlights
Synopsis
In this unusual piece, a hit at the Actors Theatre of Louisville Shorts Festival, a kindergarten teacher is obsessed with telling us, her students, the truth about the world and what our lives will be like as we grow up and why our parents and the school administrators don't want us to know.
Although funny, Chicks is a poignant portrait of a teacher trying to give her life meaning.

Press Reviews
