Sometimes you have to take off your inside masks...
Green Buffalo Productions is proud to welcome back Justin Karcher for our first fundraiser show of 2020! The Museum of F*ckboys is a funny and pensive collection of three short plays. We follow Mike as he navigates his preconceived notions of masculinity and what it feels like to love and be loved.
We're Going Virtual!
In order to keep our actors and patrons safe during this time, we're filming each short play in this production and will be making the full production available to purchase online. Stay tuned for more info on how to see these great plays! |
THE PLAYS
When Blizzard Babies Turn to Stone
A retelling of the Perseus and Medusa myth. A blizzard is going on and the power is out. Two ex-lovers with a lot of demons
navigating each others' darkness with flashlights.
When the Skeletons in Our Closets Choke on Candy Corn
Two best friends flee a Halloween house party in order to bury candy corn in the backyard. For Sam, burying the candy corn represents a burial of nostalgia. For Mike, he just wants to get laid, but to do that, he must stop the candy corn funeral at all costs.
Who's Afraid of Donald Trump?
Mikes childhood sock monkey may or may not be possessed by the ghost of his Trump-supporting, blue-collar father... who also
likes getting involved in Mike s relationship with Liz, his girlfriend. Liz has had enough.
