ABOUT Eddie and Vinnie
By Jenny Millinger

Commissioned by and World Premiere presented at Magik Theatre, San Antonio, TX

Anthony Runfola, Artistic Director
Frank Villani, Chief Executive Officer

In partnership with Celebrate Dyslexia

Eddie has dyslexia and struggles with schoolwork, and finds out he can’t play on the basketball team unless he gets his grades up.

With the help of his pet gecko, Vinnie, and the overly-helpful new girl in class, will Eddie’s final class presentation come together, or will his basketball dreams be dashed forever?

A Magik Theatre world premiere!
