In this “kid’s guide to being a kid” both children and adults will laugh along to comical numbers such as “How to Torture Your Sister,” “How to Beg for a Dog,” “How to Understand Your Parents” and more!

How to Eat Like A Child was first produced as a 1981 TV special with Dick Van Dyke. TADA! was the first company to stage this musical in 1984 without any adult characters. It’s a TADA! crowd favorite and not to be missed!
