The Boys Next Door is a play by Tom Griffin, first produced in 1986. Set in the Boston area, it deals with four men with various mental disabilities who live in a group home. It takes place over roughly a two-month period and consists of brief vignettes about the men's lives. The play provides a humorous commentary on the men's lives, taking a surprising turn as Barry's father comes to visit and as Jack (their caretaker) accepts a new job. It was adapted into a television film in 1996 by Hallmark Entertainment. The show is being produced in collaboration with TECH with the goal of connecting with the audience to educate and advocate.
The production will be directed by Shane Dawson, HutchCC’s Production Manager. For more information regarding the production, contact the director at 620-665-3341 or by e-mail at [email protected].
