AN IDEAL MAN is a fun spin on the source material, and it’s charming and affable in its delivery. I like the idea of the cast of DYNASTY suddenly being thrust into Oscar Wilde’s England via River Oaks.

A Lie of the Mind explores the destinies of two desperate families, linked by marriage but set apart by jealousies and distrust after a severe incident of spousal abuse leaves all their lives altered. Tensions and enmities that motivate the two families grow increasingly disturbing and dangerous over the course of this three-act play.

Boiling Point Players has selected its cast for the 2019 season. Audiences can expect to see a few familiar faces from past BPP productions as well as some fresh talent. The 2019 season begins January 31, 2019 with "A New World Cabaret" and closes with double feature one-acts in April.
