Inspired by James Thurber's iconic short story, this all-new play chronicles the adventures of a lonely eight-year-old boy who escapes into adventure-filled fantasies. Secret Agent Manny ascends skyscrapers with ropes and suction cups; Daytona Manny's pit crew races through a crisis; Indiana Manny Jones sidesteps snakes, bats and traps to track down treasure. Walter's frequent daydreaming often causes problems, until his imaginative resourcefulness saves the day and wins the admiration of adults and classmates alike.
