BREAKAWAY cover image
This student production addresses something that all kids have gone through, that is breaking from their childhood. The boy leave his childhood friend to go play soccer with the older boys across the street. He is reluctant to leave and the girl tries to get him to stay but, In the end, he crosses over, leaving her behind. It is completely non-narrative and powerful in the way it shows the boy's emotions. Good talking points for older kids.
