| I haven't read or seen it (I did read "Drama High"), but according to the excerpt from "Drama High" in the New York Times Magazine, the play is "a searing drama in which the captain of a prep school’s football team meets a girl working at a food court in a shopping mall and later that day films them, without her knowledge, having sex. The story moves forward in a series of painful unravelings: the school is scandalized, a family fractures, a gay relationship is revealed, a deep friendship between two boys rips apart. The drama, written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, a versatile playwright and TV writer now working as a writer and producer for “Glee,” is as much about class, privilege and power — subjects virtually unexplored in America’s schools, and particularly relevant in Levittown — as it is about sex. Volpe would be the first to put it on a high-school stage." |
