Drug Buddy, by David Folwell (Rattlestick Theatre's Boise), is stageFARM's inaugural play. It begins performances Wednesday, September 27, 2006 for a limited engagement through Saturday, October 21 at The Cherry Lane Theatre (38 Commerce Street between Barrow & Bedford streets). Opening night is Saturday, September 30 at 8:00PM.
According to press notes, "Drug Buddy is about staying up all-night and waking up transformed into the person you never wanted to become....Wade is recovering from a night of firsts: His first drug experience, his first sexual experience, his first brush with death. It's been an eventful night, if only he could remember it. Wade's best friend Bodie remembers only enough to know that they need to get out of Texas. Fast!"Videos
