BUA Presents SLIPPING

After its sold out run at New York's Rattlestick Playwrights Theater BUA PRESENTS THE WEST NEW YORK PREMIERE OF "Slipping". 

Eli is forced to move from San Francisco to Iowa after the unexpected death of his father. At the age of 17, one of his biggest regrets is that he never came out to his father. However, in this brash coming of age story, coming out is the least of Eli's troubles. Haunted by memories of his abusive ex- boyfriend Chris, at home Eli must contend with his distant, promiscuous mother Jan, and at school with the seemingly straight baseball player, Jake, who seems to have a crush on him. It is this relationship with Jake that ultimately makes Eli unravel further and possibly, may lead to catharsis. SLIPPING is sexy, painful and finally about the beauty of first love. SLIPPING was presented at Rattlestick Playwrights Theater in its New York Premiere last August in Manhattan. 

WHO: directed by Chris Kelly and starring J.R. Finan, Adam Rath, Gordon Tashjian and Beth Donohue as Jan
