Marietta Players present: The Boys Next Door
Set in the Boston area, this touching play deals with four men with various mental disabilities who live in a group home. The play provides a humorous commentary on the men’s lives, taking a surprising turn as Barry’s father comes to visit, and Jack (their caretaker) accepts a new job.
