Chris Phillips’ This is Where It Ends will run July 30 – Aug. 3 at AMT Theater. (scroll all the way down), directed by Aaron Benham.
Drew Carr, Jayd McCarty, Thomas Dodge Wheatly, and Reuben Uy.
A Contemporary Riff on Sex, Lies & Videotape. The provocative new play upends the trope of gay theatre with a blunt look at marriage, friendship, and the lies gay men tell themselves and each other. A Contemporary Riff on Sex, Lies & Videotape. A married couple from Los Angeles, Stephen and James, invite Stephen’s brash actor friend, Kody, and James’s former fraternity brother, Ellis – once an entitled entrpreneur, now a spiritually-minded, recovering sex addict — for a weekend at their Palm Springs hone, to celebrate James’s 45th. James engages in extramarital adventures with anonymous hookups and Kody, while Stephen, increasingly frustrated in his role as ornamental house-husband, finds himself first unnerved by Ellis’s blunt honesty, then drawn to his refreshing candor. As the weekend progresses, the walls come down and the gloves come off as the four men bristle under the weight of the roles all of them have played for far too long.

Trophy Boys, by Emmanuelle Mattana, directed by Danya Taymor, featuring Emmanuelle Mattna (Owen), Terry Hu (David), Louisa Jacobson Jared), and Esco Jouléy (Scott), has been extended again, and will now close Aug. 3 at Off-Broadway’s MCC Theatre.
In a culture set on punishing and criticizing men for just existing, the Trophy Boys prepare for the final debate of their undefeated high school careers. Going up against their sister school, they get a debate topic so weighted there’s no way they could possibly win—or could they? What begins as a riotously funny satire turns into a sharp exploration of power and privilege, from high school to the highest circles of political influence.
