Theater On The Edge Extends BOOM

Theater On The Edge is extending its run of BOOM, by Peter Sinn Nachtrieb, through Sunday, January 20th. The comedy-drama stars theater ensemble members Adam Minossora, Elaitheia Quinn, and Megan Raitano. Directed by Marco DiGeorge, BOOM has been receiving glowing reviews and has sold out its initial run of the show, prompting a need for additional performances.

BOOM was originally developed at Brown/Trinity Playwrights Repertory in the summer of 2007, directed by Kenneth Prestininzi.

"Sex to Change the Course of the World" a grad student's (Adam Minossora) online personal ad lures a mysterious journalism student (Megan Raitano) to his subterranean research lab under the pretense of an evening of "no strings attached" sex.

But when an alleged major global catastrophic event threatens to strike the planet, their date takes on evolutionary significance and the fate of humanity could hang in the balance. An epic and intimate dramatic comedy that explores the influences of fate versus randomness in the course of one's life, and life as we know it.

And who is the mysterious onlooker (Elaitheia Quinn) observing it all?

Theater On The Edge is known for its hyper-realistic set design and in-depth performances, and received much acclaim during its first two seasons for its previous productions of American Buffalo, Tape, Superior Donuts, Orphans, Proof, and most recently, Gidions Knot.

Elaitheia Quinn says, While working with Theater On The Edge, I have learned that when you find a home your heart is both at ease yet alive and beating with exhilarated joy. TOTE is a magical gem I found home in, it's a growing beacon that cultivates art through creativity, love & true collaboration.

Director Marco DiGeorge says, Its an absolute joy working with such a dedicated cast and crew, and we are excited to share this quirky and impactful story that has such a global quality.
