Danny, King of the Basement

By David S. Craig

A powerful story that proves home is more than simply where you live.

Apr 20-28, 2024 | Wells Fargo Playhouse
One Act, approx. 60 minutes | For ages 9+

10-year-old Danny "Delco" Carter is the "king of moving." When Danny and his mom move into a basement apartment on an upscale street, the kids he meets have more material things, but they seem to have bigger challenges than he realizes. Danny’s imaginative play creates a sense of community that allows his friends to cope with their problems and, ultimately, to help Danny - because Danny's challenge isn't losing a home - it's gaining one.
Themes: Poverty, friendship, the power of positivity
