Teen Dad at Passage Theatre

In Teen Dad, Abby, a precocious emo-goth teenager, orchestrates a surprise reunion for her mother Tanya and birth father Tom, with the help of her mom's fiance/healer John. Hoping to provoke long-lasting reconciliation between her parents before her high school graduation, Abby's plans completely derail when Tom arrives with his new girlfriend Alisha. The play subverts the regional theatre kitchen-sink beach house dramedy to share a comedic exploration of generational trauma and recovery in a mixed race Black and Latinx family. The production stars Jade Cox, Morgan Charéce Hall, Zachary Valdez, Walter DeShields, and Victoria Wallace, co-directed by C. Ryanne Domingues and Richard Bradford.
