No. It’s not what you’re thinking.
The Spartanburg Youth Theatre just wrapped up their season with a hilarious and inventive production of the Judy Blume classic “Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing”.
Everybody remembers the antics of the little three year old terror known affectionately as FUDGE. But getting a three year old to act can be just as terrifying…. So director Matt Giles cast the biggest high school kids as the three year olds. Hilarious. Even more hilarious is that someone actually thought the play dealt with a family’s struggle to raise a full grown autistic teenager. They must have missed the part where they said he was three.

Congratulations Spartanburg Youth Theatre on a record breaking season!
