WORLD PREMIERE

April 15 - May 22, 2011
The Boy in the Bathroom
Book and Lyrics by Michael Lluberes
Music and additional lyrics by Joe Maloney
Directed by Artistic Director Oanh Nguyen*^
Musical Direction by Mike Wilkins**

Boy locks himself in bathroom. Boy won't leave.
Then... boy meets girl.

This award-winning musical is about David, who has lived in his bathroom for a year. He eats the flat food his mother slips under the door, writes his college thesis on rolls of toilet paper, and decorates the room with origami birds. But, when Julie comes into his safe existence, a relationship begins (through the bathroom door) that makes David question whether there is finally a reason to stop hiding and step outside. The Boy in the Bathroom is filled with rich melodies and new songs that remind us all of the magic that can exist when we lower our guard and take a chance on life.

NOTE: This show contains some adult language.
