NEW YORK CITY, NY — The audience of the Broadway play & Juliet was in for a heartwarming surprise during a recent showing, when the production called a little retarded girl up on stage to perform one of the numbers.
While theatergoers were not certain why the short, apparently mentally handicapped girl was added to the production, the tiny retard’s performance was a huge hit with the audience.
“I’m doing it!” squeaked the poor little retarded girl during her song and dance number. “This is a dream come true! Thank you Broadway people!”
Critics across the board raved about the little girl’s brief appearance on Broadway.
“I just love it that & Juliet was bold and brave enough to put one of those handicapped kids up on stage,” gushed theater critic Giulianna Froccia. “It really just speaks to their heart for the developmentally challenged. Bless her heart. What an inspiration.”
Fans were unsure about the identity of the little girl, however.
“I mean, it seemed they were treating her like she was someone famous or something,” said audience member Ben Colson. “But I have no idea who she could be. She obviously can’t be anything too important, with an IQ level that low. She certainly shouldn’t be in any position of power or influence.”
At publishing time, the retarded little thespian had to rush off to return to the nation’s capital, where she would reportedly sit to hear arguments that would potentially determine the fate of the United States.
