Nelly Boy smart, heartfelt, and sometimes funny

By Dave Deveau. Directed by Cameron Mackenzie. Presented by Zee Zee Theatre, in association with Screaming Weenie Productions. At the PAL Theatre on Friday, October 23. Continues until November 1

Remember the name Amitai Marmorstein. This guy is going to be a star.

In local playwright Dave Deveau's new script Nelly Boy, Marmorstein plays a biologically male 15-year-old who doesn't want to identify as either male or female. Following a crisis with his family, Nelly is found wandering naked on a highway. For the bulk of the play, we watch as he spars with an older male interviewer, who could be a therapist, cop, lawyer, or none of the above.
