Katherine Wilkinson, director
Andy Boyd presents a staged reading of a half hour pilot for a hybrid live/animated show called Nature Boy. This show is about a twelve year-old autistic boy who creates elaborate super hero worlds in his head and in the pages of his comic books, while also navigating the hostile world of middle school. His primary creation is Nature Man, defender of the environment against the predations of his arch-enemy Super-Fund.
Some discussion of bullying and some cartoon violence.
