Pat Hazell’s The Wonder Bread Years is a hilarious one-man show-and-tell
reminding us that there is still a kid inside each of us, and a sense
of wonder that is waiting to be unlocked. A salute to pure escapism and
the Baby Boomer Generation, The Wonder Bread Years is akin to opening
a time capsule packed with the most common youth-filled joys of childhood,
such as: Hula Hoop contests, lawn darts, Kool-Aid, Rock 'Em, Sock 'Em
Robots, Big Wheels, Eskimo Pies, Clackers, Toughskin Jeans and riding
in the way back of the Country Squire wagon- reminding us all that we
share more in common than we have differences. Recognizing the foundation
of common interest in both professional and personal situations is key
to developing successful relationships in the work environment and at
home.
The Wonder Bread Years, described as “pure un-pasteurized nostalgia” by
The LA Times, aired on PBS as a one-hour special, where Hazell was referred

fast-paced production, hailed as “infectiously charming” by
LA Weekly, gracefully walks the line between stand up and theater and
is making its way across the country to rave reviews. The Wonder Bread
Years not only restores a much-needed sense of wonder, it leaves audiences
more connected to their co-workers and inspired to seek the foundation
of common interest in the next prospective client.
