'Nobody's Perfect' - washingtonpost.com
The world premiere of the musical "Nobody's Perfect," based on the 2006 book co-written by Oscar-winning actress Marlee Matlin, opens Friday at the Kennedy Center.
As in her other two books, Matlin writes about what she knows best: being deaf.
"Nobody's Perfect" continues the story of Megan Merrill, a fourth-grader who lost her hearing as an infant. When a new girl, the seemingly perfect Alexis Powell, arrives in Megan's class, Megan goes out of her way to make Alexis feel welcome. But Alexis is anything but perfect when it comes to being a friend. She rejects Megan time after time. What is wrong with her? Megan wonders. Is it because I'm deaf?
When the girls are teamed for a school science project, Alexis's secret comes out. We won't spoil it for you. Just remember: Nobody's perfect.
The musical, for ages 9 and older, runs through Nov. 3. Tickets are $18 and can be purchased at the Kennedy Center Box Office or by calling 202-467-4600.
