Two Acts - can bedone on bare stage - On or Off book - suitable for general audiences (no rough language) - funny, nostalgic, poignant, one actor - (suggesstions included at end for larger cast, if desired).
Howie (Herschel) Green, a funny, imaginative, naive, likable, first generation son of Russian Jewish immigrants is out to learn America so he can teach his parents. He begins his Journey by biting his kindergarten teacher. The next 17 years are equally triumphant.
The play is adapted from some of the author's book, HOWIE LEARNS AMERICA.
One of the author's other plays, CHAIM'S LOVE SONG, (published by Samuel French), has been produced Off Broadway and in many other cities. It is about a 74 year old American Tevye, his family, his friends, and his major life experiences. In many ways, Howie is the son of Chaim.
