Stages Theatre Company and the Capri present: “All American Boys”

  • This event has passed.

All American Boys is presented by Stages Theatre Company in collaboration with the Capri Theater

April 29 – May 22, 2022

The journey of two teen boys and a life-altering incident.

By Jody Drezner Alperin and Vicky Finney Crouch, based on the book by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely

Twin Cities Premiere | Ages 10+

At once timely and timeless, funny and wickedly smart… about what it means to be a young man in America— across lines of race—and what it means to be a GOOD person in America—across lines of Everything.

– Jacqueline Woodson

The lives of two high-school boys, one black and one white, powerfully intersect after a violent act of racially motivated police brutality. Unfolding through the boys’ alternating perspectives, the story follows their journey as they grapple with the devastating impact of racism as it reverberates through their families, school and town. Stages Theatre Company is proud to bring this important play, based on the award-winning book by Brendan Kiely and National Book Award winner and Ambassador of Children’s Literature, Jason Reynolds, to Twin Cities audiences.
