2008 Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Nominee for Best Play
From Up Here
November 6-23, 2014
WRITTEN BY Liz Flahive
DIRECTED BY Jen Uphoff Gray
“The play has the bouncy humor of a quirky-family sitcom, but in this case the usual adolescent afflictions — acne and awkwardness, mean girls and cruel jocks — take a back seat to something larger, darker and more mysterious.”
– The New York Times
Meet Kenny…
Meet Kenny Barrett, a brooding teenager who has done something that has everyone on high alert. He wishes he could make it through the rest of his senior year unnoticed, but that’s going to be hard since he has to publicly apologize to his entire high school. As his family tries to rebuild their lives, Kenny’s just trying to get through lunch period. A darkly funny and unexpectedly moving story about a family limping out the door in the morning and coming home no matter what.
