CHILDREN’S COMEDY WITH SONG. This play is a fun way for children to learn more about American history through the unlikely history of one of our favorite foods: the tomato. The story traces the humble beginnings of the tomato from its “discovery” by Spanish conquistadors in the New World to its arrival in Spain, North America, and even the moon! Kids will love rapping along with the Tomato Revue and learning fun tomato facts.
