Opening this week at Boston Playwrights Theatre... Mr. Parent by Melinda Lopez with Maurice Emmanuel Parent, Conceived with and directed by Megan Sandberg-Zakian

A struggling actor turns to teaching for a steady paycheck, thinking "how hard could it be?" It doesn't take long to realize that the answer is somewhere between "very" and "impossible." But then-as he careens from the Boston Public Schools by day to serious thespian at night-Mr. Parent starts to wonder where he really belongs. Mr. Parent is a deeply felt and hilarious solo performance about crushingly inequitable systems, the brilliance of every kid, and how we might all find the space to be ourselves.

Featuring Maurice Emmanuel Parent.
