| Run Time | Around 65 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | A touching and deftly-handled approach to the subject of childhood illness. Multiple settings, but does not need explicit sets. Contains mild swearing (which could be moderated if deemed in appropriate for a specific production). |
