Oh, brother! Sibling mischief and best pal escapades are the problems Peter Hatcher faces in his attempts to deal with his impossible brother, Fudge. Based on the popular title by perennial favorite Judy Blume, Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is a humorous look at family life and the troubles that can only be caused by a younger sibling.

 

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is based on the children’s novel written by Judy Blume in 1972.  It is the first of the "Fudge books" and was followed by Superfudge, Fudge-a-Mania and Double Fudge.

 

In August 2012, the readers of LA Parent magazine voted the Morgan-Wixson’s Youth Education/Entertainment Series (Y.E.S.) as one of the Top 2 Children’s Theatres in all of Los Angeles.

 

Y.E.S. is part of the Morgan-Wixson Theatre’s commitment to engaging young audiences, training young talent, and supporting literacy. Participants range in age from 8-18.  Y.E.S. offers four youth productions each year and one full-length Youth Musical each November/ December; performances are on Saturdays and Sundays.
