Abstract: A teenage boy is brought by his mother to a guidance counselor to try to get him admitted to high school in spite of being mentally challenged. When he meets a girl who is interested in him, everyone turns on him. What right does he have to be normal? This play was inspired by Bettyjane Wylie's son, Matthew, who, seeing a production of "Kingsayer" said he liked the boy in the cage.
