“Kissing Boo Boos” opens in Canada



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.
