The couple then went on to conceive and write New Canadian Kid, the company's signature play about a young boy who struggles with culture shock and bullying after immigrating to Canada. The play has been produced world wide for close to 40 years. [1] Green Thumb operates in a former school house located in East Vancouver.[2] In 1980, Green Thumb produced Feeling Yes, Feeling No,[3] a sexual abuse prevention program.[4] Green Thumb performed the premiere of Colin Thomas' play One Thousand Cranes in 1983.[5] Morris Panych has written several plays for the company that have toured internationally.[6] Green Thumb's Celestial Being received the 2015 Jessie Richardson Theatre Award for outstanding production for young audiences.[7] Also that year, Green Thumb performed George F. Walker's Moss Park.[8] As of 2018, Patrick McDonald is Green Thumb's artistic director.[9] References1. ^Fairhead (2002), p. 154. 2. ^Ulysses Travel Guides (2003), p. 229. 3. ^Selman & Heather (2015), p. 501. 4. ^Selman & Heather (2015), p. 232. 5. ^Ross & Cameron (2013), p. 97 6. ^New (2002), p. 862. 7. ^{{Cite news|work=The Georgia Straight|title=Théâtre la Seizième Wins Big at 33rd Annual Jessie Richardson Theatre Awards|author=Thomas, Colin|date=June 23, 2015|url=https://www.straight.com/arts/475996/theatre-la-seizieme-wins-big-33rd-annual-jessie-richardson-theatre-awards|accessdate=July 2, 2015}} 8. ^{{Cite news|work=Ottawa Citizen|title=Theatre Review: Moss Park Piles on the Angst and Loses Its Way|author=Langston, Patrick|date=January 23, 2015|url=https://ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/local-arts/moss-park-piles-on-the-angst-and-loses-its-way|accessdate=July 2, 2015}} 9. ^{{Cite news|work=The Globe and Mail|title=B.C.
