This nostalgic, tender, and real script is based off the book I’m Proud of You: My Friendship with Fred Rogers by Tim Madigan. It has been adapted for the stage by Tim Madigan and Harry Parker. “I considered him to be one of my closest friends. In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say that if it were not for Fred Rogers, I might not be around today, alive to tell you my story...” Tim Madigan invites us into his memories and friendship with a man who shaped more than a generation—simply with his kindness.
