“The Boys Next Door”
By Tom Griffin
Directed by Rebecca Reger
Performances at Cleveland Community College:
June 18-19, 25-26, 2010 at 7:30 pm;
June 20 and 27, 2010 at 2:30 pm
Synopsis: The Boys Next Door is a very funny yet touching play focuses on the lives of four men with disabilities who live in a communal residence under the watchful eye of a sincere but increasingly despairing social worker. Filled with humor and
mingled with scenes from the daily lives of these men are moments of great poignancy, when we are reminded that disabilities are relative and that we all want only to love and laugh and find
meaning and purpose in the brief time we are given.
$10 Adults/ $8 Seniors & Students, $2 off adv. tickets.
