THE BIG SNEEZE is a hilarious, yet poignant play about the grade school trials of Lizzy, the tallest girl in her school. Being different is hard and Lizzy’s only wish is to be invisible to her classmates – stay beneath the radar. It almost works until one day she has the loudest, most gigantic sneeze EVER and out pops (in human form) her very own sneeze and Lizzy’s life changes forever. Dealing with issues of self-esteem and peer relationships, THE BIG SNEEZE takes audiences on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance.
