A new play, The Hombres by Tony Meneses is now on stage at Two River Theater in Red Bank.  This view of emerging male friendships will be performed through April 10 in the Marion Huber Theater.

Set in New Jersey (“somewhere off the NJ Transit line”), the play follows Julián, a gay Latino yoga teacher, as he clashes with the straight and macho Latino construction workers outside his studio—particularly the older head of the crew, Héctor, who seeks from Julián something he never expected. Annie Tippe (Lortel Award-winning Octet) to direct.
