In YEN, Bobbie and Hench are home alone. Days are filled by streaming porn, playing Call of Duty, watching the world go by. Their mom rarely visits these days, and it's chaos when she does. But when animal-loving neighbor Jenny takes an interest in their dog Taliban, the boys discover a world far beyond what they know. YEN explores a childhood lived without boundaries.

YEN begins performances on January 12, 2017 ahead of a January 30 opening night. It is currently scheduled through February 19, 2017 at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (121 Christopher Street). Additional casting will be announced at a later date. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on November 30. Priority booking for subscribers and patrons begins on November 15.
