For those of you who don’t know what Bare is…
Set in a Catholic boarding school, the show centers on a group of friends during their senior year. Altar boy Peter is in love with his roommate Jason, the most popular boy in school. They are carrying on a closeted romance, but Peter wants to go public with their affair, at least to his mother whom he loves dearly. Jason isn’t so keen on the idea, as he feels his entire world would crumble if word of the relationship got out. Things get more complicated when Ivy makes a play for Jason. Her rejected suitor Matt discovers the secret that Peter and Jason have been keeping, and it’s only a matter of time before things start to spin out of control.
It is a heart wrenching story of romance, adolescence, desperation, and crisis of faith. The cast, direction by Carl Menninger, and music direction by Sariva Goetz is phenomenal. So, please come support American University, the LGBT community, and all of those kids out there that feel hopeless and trapped because of their sexuality.
Bare runs from February 23 - 25 & March 2 - 3 at 8pm, with 2pm matinees on Feb. 25 and Mar. 3.
