More Information About Distracted
Description
Jesse is eight years old and easily distracted. But so are his mother and father. So are the neighbors! And the doctors! In their fractured, fast-paced, overly wired lives, the consequence is almost…inevitable. Or is it? Has Jesse been correctly diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder? Is it caused by overstimulation? Bad parenting? Too many chemicals in the food? Too many poisons in the environment? Or is Jesse just a kid in an ADD world? Distracted explores this wild ride with offbeat humor, searing honesty and a provocative style.
This production marks the world premiere.
