Farm Boys at NCTC through Feb. 18

By:

The New Conservatory Theatre Center continues its 12th Season with Farm Boys, directed by Dennis Lickteig, now playing through February 18.

"When John unexpectedly inherits a small farm in his hometown in central Wisconsin, he leaves New York City to reacquaint himself with the farming lifestyle," explains press notes, "But the ghosts of John's past – including a relationship he had as a teenager with the farm's original owner – cast a shadow over his current romance with his partner Kim, a native New Yorker and choreographer.  Judged by a community fearful of homosexuality and pressured to sell the property by a corporation that is slowly extinguishing small farmers, John must decide where he and Kim can create a home for themselves."

Farm Boys is running now through February 18.  Show times are Wednesdays – Saturdays at 8PM, and Sundays at 2PM.  There is no show January 21.  Previews are through January 19.  There is a captioned performance on February 11 at 2PM.

The New Conservatory Theatre Center (Decker Theatre) is located at 25 Van Ness Avenue in San Francisco.

Tickets: $22 for Previews & Wednesdays, $28 for Thursdays & Fridays, $34 for Saturdays & Sundays and $40 for Opening Night.  Pay As You Wish Community Night is Thursday, January 18.  Tickets are available at NCTC's Box Office, by calling 415-861-8972, or online at www.nctcsf.org.
