Is he going to be like this for the rest of his cockadoodle days?

Miss Pimple? Like, what if you pulled on his arm and, like, we pulled on you?

He can't stop, like, messin' with his nose because his finger is, like ... stuck!

"An amazing performance by The Drama Club of Immaculate Conception School, Formosa, Ontario. Spring 2008. Directed by Scott Armstrong and Mary Beth Dennis"

The play Bubba Begonia was definitely the highlight of last year [2008]. The
character that I played was the mother of Bubba which was a very
interesting role because I had to send him to school hoping that he
wouldn't pick his nose. When he came home I had to pretend that I
didn't know anything that happened that day at school.
This play is so funny and so much fun to put together. I know that
everyone in my class had so much fun and so did the teachers that helped
put the production together. The story of Bubba Begonia is one that
really relates to younger students because I know for a fact that most of
them pick their noses. I had so much fun acting in the play Bubba Begonia
and there is only one person to thank for giving the school something to
laugh about and that is the author. Thank you so much for writing the
play Bubba Begonia. It has been loads of fun.
