Backstroke Boys

by Xavier Clark

October 27 - November 4

Plays in “Preview” - Workshop Production at Fault Line Theatre, NYC

154 Christopher Street

On his first day of swim practice at a brand-new high school, and country, Quentin befriends Zia, the captain of the swim team, and through their growing relationship they open up a whole can of worms. A coming-of-age story that grapples with the question of how can you hold on to your faith when your faith is showing grace and acceptance towards everything else but your own self?
