Monsters of the American Cinema at Alley Repertory Theater

When Remy Washington inherits a run-down drive-in movie theater, he doesn’t just inherit a screen and a parking lot—he also takes on the unexpected responsibility of raising his late husband’s straight, white teenage son.

A Black gay man, Remy desperately wants to do right by Pup, but in an age of social media, racism, and homophobia, the challenge is steep. Creatures from the Deep Lagoon might be their only hope.

Haunting and funny, Monsters at the American Cinema is a tender tale of fatherhood, loss, and love.
