Wells Fargo Playhouse | For ages 6+

The 2019 high-spirited musical returns with the original heart and humor that made it a smash hit. Brian is no stranger to feeling invisible. His classmates don’t notice him or include him in games or birthday parties. All that changes when a boy named Justin arrives at school. Through a simple act of kindness, a new friendship forms. The two team up for a class project where Brian’s lively personality and vivid imagination shine for all to see. This production is a part of The Kindness Project. One-Act, approx. 60 min.
Feel-Good Moment: “I wrote The Invisible Boy to help young readers know that it doesn't take super-human efforts to reach out to others to make them feel visible, acknowledged, and accepted,” said Author Trudy Ludwig who first visited CTC in 2019.
