The Ugly Kids

Presented July 17, 20-21, 2019 as part of the 2018 Fresh Fruit Festival at the wild project.

A world premiere musical told through spoken word and jazz-inspired sound outlining the story of an eating disorder and the act of saving oneself. onstageblog praised this production for its “catchy music, but also smart writing and a powerful message behind it,” finding it “likely related to anyone who deals with not just an eating disorder, but potentially a wide variety of mental illnesses which prevent people from enjoying life to the fullest.”

The Ugly Kids won Outstanding Musical and Outstanding Lead Performance in a Musical for two of our performers at the 2019 Fruitie Awards.
