Knox Theatre Collective
and Urban Stories Theatre present Kissing
Boo Boos as part of “Just Acts Play Festival 2015: Examining Power”. The show
runs February 10 through 15 in Alberta, Canada. In Kissing
Boo Boos, a child cries over a scraped knee. With no parent in sight, the
child is comforted by a male passerby. The mother rushes over and is
distrustful of the strange man holding her kid. The same scene plays out again,
but this time the Good Samaritan is a woman. The mother is thankful that the
kind lady helped out. This five-minute play explores the hypocrisy of gender
roles in childcare. For production information, visit www.urbanstoriestheatre.org or http://knoxtheatrecollective.ca. For a perusal copy of the
