Boys' Life
concerns itself with the cynical lives of three twenty-somethings.
At that age, "lives" and "sex lives" are virtually
synonymous. Most of their waking hours are spent either
on the prowl or rationalizing and justifying their
quest, its successes and failings.
Boys'
Life plays out in a series of scenes in which Jack, Don
and Phil follow different trajectories through the
minefield of post-adolescent development. Jack, the
least grown up, is married with a child, but has eyes
that still wander; Don, apparently the most mature,
finds someone to love even though he must prove it to
himself by comparison; and Phil is, well, still looking.
With a
sterling cast including Emmet Scanlon, Barry J Byrne,
Cillian Roche, Karl Argue, Rachel Rath, Camille Donegan,
Andrea Murphy, Celine Mullins, Clodagh Reid and Patrick
Moynan, the show played to packed houses for a three
week run in Andrews Lane Studio.
