The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Sep. 28, 2024, 2:00 p.m.–3:30 p.m.
Location:

The Powerhouse Theater

A reading of a play by Foster Schrader ’25, recipient of the Marilyn Swartz Seven ’69 Annual Playwriting Award, Spring ’24. A reception will follow.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf is a play about trauma, how it is inflicted on us, and how we move forward from it. The two main characters take turns playing each other’s legal representation, while the chorus acts as an incredibly biased slew of bystanders. The play asks, How do we forgive ourselves? How do we forgive each other? And should we?
