I don't think you need to dumb down to a child, you merely have to be clear, you know?
I'd get more applause than some because I was just seventeen. If they didn't clap at the end of my act I would limp off stage and boy would they feel guilty. They would all burst into tremendous applause as they saw this poor cripple kid walking off.
I am blessed to be able to work at a job I love and also give back in the most vital way - to people in need.
