The Hundred Dresses
Civic Youth Theatre Play
Just like all of us, Wanda Petronski wants to fit in. But, because she is the new girl in school, is poor, speaks with an accent and wears the same dress to school everyday, she has no friends. Feeling lonely and isolated, one day Wanda says, "I got a hundred dresses. All lined up in my closet." This gets Peggy's attention and the teasing game begins. Maddie feels bad for Wanda but Peggy is her best friend. Should she stand up for Wanda and lose Peggy's friendship? The tough questions lead to life altering answers in this celebration of courage, tolerance and artistic creativity.
