The Nickel

A play for 5 Male, 3 Female.

From the moment Herbie O'Hara steps into his inner-city grade school, everything that could possibly go wrong, does
What would be every fifth grader's nightmare is actually this unfortunate boy's reality

He's late for class, then his teacher mistakes him for the boy who was murdered at a gas station, the lead in his pencil breaks, and on and on

Will anything ever go right?

Will he survive this day?

Will he ever find a friend?

A bright new nickel offers the boy hope in a "secret admirer"

A play for every age

Can be performed at high school level
