Trent Arterberry - Walter Manny

"The young audience loves the
rubber-faced Arterberry...

X"The young audience loves the rubber-faced—and— bodied Arterberry and his creation of fantasy scenes. Walter turns into a cowboy, firefighter, pilot, race car driver, secret agent and rock star without the use of props, set or costumes. "

"A fabulous artist..."

X"Using only his wiry body, elastic face and shape-shifting voice, the middle-aged thespian acts out Walter's daydreamed worlds of adventure... The play, a true gem, resolves with a nugget of wisdom as useful for adults as it is for children.
Rating ★★★★ 1/2. "

The Secret Life of Walter Manny
(60 minutes; grades K-6 and Families)

Walter Manny is a ten-year-old boy whose overactive imagination gets him in—and out of—trouble. Lonely and misunderstood, Walter escapes into fantasies of firefighting, racecar driving and secret-agent spying. "Initially considered a weirdo by his peers, Walter proves himself and learns not only that he can be appreciated by others but also that his imagination works best when he uses it in a focused manner."
