Photo Flash: First Look at Retro Productions' GOOD BOYS AND TRUE

By:

Retro Productions celebrates its eleventh season with Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Glee/Big Love) drama, Good Boys and True which had its World Premiere at The Steppenwolf Theatre in 2007. The production is directed by DeLisa White who won a New York Innovative Theatre Award for Outstanding Director for Vincent Marano's Lights Narrow. Good Boys and True, is Retro Productions 18th full length play. Their last production, The Butter and Egg Man played to sold-out houses and received rave reviews. Heather E. Cunningham (NYIT Award Winner for Outstanding Actress/An Appeal To The Woman Of The House) is the Producing Artistic Director, Sara Slagle serves as an Associate Producer.

It's 1988 and Brandon is embarking on his Senior year at St. Joseph's Preparatory School for Boys. He's smart, charming and the captain of the football team - a typical St. Joe's leader. But when a video tape featuring graphic sex acts is found in one of the school's VCRs his future is threatened. Is Brandon the boy on the tape? Who is the girl? And why was the tape made? The slow revealing of the answers to these questions force Brandon's mother Elizabeth to confront unsettling truths about her son, herself, and the foundation of their lives as the school and community are rocked by scandal.

Featuring: C.K. Allen(Lawn People/ Cherry Lane), Stephan Amenta (A Great Wilderness/Williamstown, Heather E. Cunningham (NYIT Award for Best Actress/An Appeal To The Woman of the House), Rebecca Gray Davis (The Butter and Egg Man/Retro), Ryan Pater (A Man's A Man/Classic Stage Company), and Moira Stone (Money Lab/HERE Arts Center)
