MST is considering Beautiful Boy for production and we'd love to get your thoughts on the play.

When Bill's adoptive parents die and he is laid off from his job, he feels lost. His need to find out who he is and where he comes from grows stronger. The search for his birth parents takes him from Missouri to Connecticut. What he finds shocks and disturbs him, but is he disappointed?

This funny, suspenseful play tackles the plight of grown children lost in a closed system, where parents' rights trump their children's need to know.
