The Smartest Girl in the World
by Austin Playhouse

Jan. 10 (2018)

This heartfelt, warm, and witty play by Miriam Gonzales tells the story of Leo and Lizzy Martinez, latch-key children of hardworking parents. Leo is convinced that winning a local TV quiz show and becoming “the smartest kids in the world” can really change things for their family. But when their parents refuse to let Leo participate, Lizzy decides to grow up, step up, and rescue the plan — and her family — along the way.
