Theatre Seven presents Boys & Girls
Posted by DCA Theater on June 3, 2008 in January-June 2008 Season, Boys & Girls
Who’s got more cash? Who’s got the better pad? Who’s got the bigger thing? Two old pals play a deadly game that’s more than just a game in Canadian playwright Daniel MacIvor’s Never Swim Alone. MacIvor blows the lid off modern masculinity by examining the story of two lifelong friends chained together by one tragic childhood day at the beach.
Chicago favorite Wendy MacLeod returns with The Shallow End a clever look at three teenage girls whose friendship is put to the test over the course of one summer. While Teresa and Becca are busy planning tricks on the class oddball, Addie’s at the beach chairs grilling the new girl about her relationship with Brendan. And how come Marjorie spends so much time talking to the boy with the heart defect? Just another summer hanging out at the city pool…
Boys & Girls is the first production following Theatre Seven’s inaugural 2007 season that included Marisa Wegrzyn’s smash hits Killing Women and Diversey Harbor. That play earned wide critical acclaim and earned Theatre Seven a Chicago Reader Critic’s Choice, and was named one of the top ten plays of the year by writers at New City and Performink!
