American Son, which earned the 2016 Laurents/Hatcher Foundation Award for a new play by an emerging playwright, is a ripped-from-the-headlines drama by Christopher Demos-Brown. The emotionally charged play stars George Street favorites John Bolger (GSP's Outside Mullingar, Twelve Angry Men) and SuzzAnne Douglas (GSP's Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Wit), as well as Mark Junek (Broadway's The Performers) and Mark Kenneth Smaltz (Law & Order: SVU). Performances run now through February 26, 2017.

Helming George Street Playhouse's production is Artistic Director David Saint, celebrating his 20th anniversary at The Playhouse.

Jamal's car has been pulled over in the middle of the night. His mother (Douglas) and her estranged husband (Bolger) rush to the police station seeking answers and their son's whereabouts. With no explanation forthcoming and emotions building, this highly charged drama twists and turns to an explosive conclusion.

Individual tickets, starting at $20, and discount ticket packages are also available. Contact the George Street Playhouse Box Office at 732-246-7717 or visit www.GSPonline.org for tickets and information. George Street Playhouse is located at 9 Livingston Avenue in the heart of New Brunswick's vibrant downtown dining and entertainment district, steps away from plentiful parking and dining options for every palate and pocketbook.

American Son is sponsored by The Karma Foundation and The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation.
