Ryan West and Dayna Womack in BOYS NEXT DOOR Play
The Boys Next Door! plays November 9th-11th and 15th-18th at Biola's Theatre 21. Get tickets here. The Boys Next Door is about four men with intellectual disabilities who live under the supervision of an earnest, but "burned out" young social worker named Jack. Mingled with scenes from their daily lives, where "little things" sometimes become momentous (and very funny), are moments when, with touching effectiveness, we are reminded that persons with disabilities, like the rest of us, want only to love and laugh and find some meaning and purpose in life.
