Kelsey Theatre Presents TALES OF A FOURTH GRADE NOTHING, 11/21

Peter Warren Hatcher and his little brother, Fudge, have a bad case of sibling rivalry. Two Beans Productions, by special arrangement with TheatreworksUSA, chronicles their struggles in "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing," coming to Mercer County Community College's Kelsey Theatre on Saturday, Nov. 21 at 2 and 4 p.m. 

Based on the popular children's book by Judy Blume, the play follows the trials of nine-year-old Peter, who has a tough time coping with his troublesome younger brother, Fudge - whether it's Fudge's tantrum in the shoe store, his refusal to open his mouth at the dentist's office or, worst of all, ruining Peter's third birthday party. And to top it off, Fudge gets all the attention, while Peter gets all the blame. It's enough to make a kid feel like a fourth grade nothing!
