Orlando Patoboy, director and creator of the musical, said that upon finding out when laughter becomes beautiful, he turned to his five-year-old son for help in writing the script.
Children possess "laughter that [has] the least amount of cynicism in its texture," Patoboy said. "So my son writing the opening monologue seemed natural to me and essential."
The play will take part in 2009's Festival of New American Musicals, Patoboy said.
More information about the musical is found at the CSULB theater website.
