Police Boys - Paperback

by Marion Isaac McClinton (Author)

"POLICE BOYS is a cry from the heart written in response to the recession-spawned epidemic of gang violence that erupted in the late 80s. Filled with a rich array of lovingly and painfully conceived characters who spout equal parts profanity-laced invective and transfigurative arias, it charged headlong into a world of fatherless warrior children and the elder survivors wrestling with them, and with their own legacies. The ambition, compassion, and tumbling catharsis of the play still leaps off the page."
from Artistic Director Tim Sanford's introduction to Plays From Playwrights Horizons, Volume Two
