Wilmington College Theatre
Feb. 27-29
Boyd Cultural Arts Center [Wilmington]

THE BOYS NEXT DOOR is a poignant comedy by Tom Griffin about four men living in a group home for people with disabilities. In brief vignettes, the play offers humorous and touching commentary on the lives of the four men and their earnest, but increasingly “burned out” social worker. From date night dances and impromptu puppet shows to workplace bullies and disappointed fathers, we see how all the characters navigate their way through a constantly changing world.

Nya, an inner-city public high school teacher, is committed to her students but desperate to give her only son, Omari, opportunities they’ll never have. But when an explosive incident at his prestigious private school threatens to get him expelled, will all her efforts be lost? A compelling, must-see portrait of parenthood, education, and the experience of young black men in America, PIPELINE brings an urgent conversation powerfully to the forefront. This production contains mature language and content and may not be suitable for all audiences.
