In
the early 1970s, a theatre troupe in Toronto, Canada endeavored
to bring real life to the stage by living with the rural farming
community and turning those glimpses of farm life into entertaining
theatrical productions. The Drawer Boy is based on that movement
and shows us a chapter in the life of a young actor gathering information
for a new play by living with an odd couple of farmers. As the play
progresses, the young actor becomes more a part of their lives than
he had imagined possible, and the play becomes a convoluted mirror
of tales and secrets reflecting everything but a quiet farm-life
existence. Riddled with comedic interactions, twists and turns of
reality, and a heart-warming poignancy, The Drawer Boy promises
to entertain in a most inspiring way. Canadian playwright Michael
Healey's play was hailed as one of the best plays of 2001 by Time
magazine.
