LAUGH, CRY, AND SCRATCH YOUR HEAD!
LAUGH, CRY AND SCRATCH YOUR HEAD!
Enter the world of a Southern California altar boy, parochial school student, and athlete as he attempts to maneuver through the rigid and strict labyrinth of the Roman Catholic Church in the 1950s and 60s. An epic clash of the church’s traditions, piety, and self-righteousness with our antagonist’s fast-forward energy, immaturity, and humor will leave you in stitches. Big family values and hair-raising adventures are put on full display as a tough-love father and beautiful, free-spirited mother combine forces to raise their six sons and one daughter. The world is rapidly changing, society is trying to keep up, and new discoveries become a daily occurrence. It is within this web of complexity we witness how one young boy uses his sense of humor, penchant for practical jokes, rapier wit, and mischievous nature to entertain friends, classmates, and teammates. His altar boy shenanigans, classroom capers, and family hijinks will leave you laughing, crying, and shaking your head. As you see his explosion of questionable behavior erupt, you will wonder how our pint-size hero managed to steer clear of California’s penal institutions. You will find yourself rooting for his bravery and, at the same time, grimacing over his outlandish deeds. Dennis the Menace, Eddie Haskell, and George Machado would make a fine modern-day version of the Three Musketeers. However, trust me, you wouldn’t want these three characters wielding swords in your neighborhood!
