Farm Boys at NCTC through Feb. 18

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."
