My son is 8 years old and I can't even begin to imagine him having the capacity to consider such topics (obviously I want him to stay innocent forever!) Even if these 9 yr olds are physically developed and playing characters who are meant to be older, it's still requires an impressive level of understanding for them to express these ideas on stage at such a young age.

I have no shadow of a doubt though, that the chosen kids will be brilliant and beyond capable!
