honeyhole
Calderwood Pavilion, 527 Tremont Street
In the hot, sweaty heat of one southern summer; Lou, a young queer beauty queen, meets Ellis, the new girl in town. In this original play, Lou begins to realize that the thing her mama has always thought would be her ticket to a bigger life outside of a few-stoplight-gossipy-sorta-town, might just be the thing that’s holding her back from becoming who she is, who she wants to be, and what she dreams of doing: hiking the Appalachian Trail like her father once did. honeyhole follows Lou’s journey with self-realization, first love, and allowing herself to be seen.

Moonbox hosting New Works Festival June 22-25, 2023 at the BCA.
Moonbox Productions has selected seven original plays by local playwrights for its 2nd Annual Boston New Works Festival. Moonbox will host the 2023 Boston New Works Festival June 22nd – 25th at the Boston Center for the Arts.
Once again, Moonbox’s request for submissions garnered a broad assortment of musicals and plays from very talented playwrights in the Boston area. From the over 50 submissions, Moonbox’s diverse panel of judges chose seven original theatrical pieces for this year’s festival. This year’s festival includes three musicals and four original plays. In the coming months, the playwrights will be part of an extensive workshop process that will culminate in staged productions at the festival in June.
“It is sometimes hard to find silver linings around the dark cloud of the COVID pandemic, but the Boston New Works Festival is one of those glimmers of light,” said Producer, Sharman Altshuler. “Had we not been forced to shutter for a year, we would not have had the time and restlessness to develop the idea for a festival of new works, and after a hugely successful debut last June, it is with immeasurable joy that we make good on our mission to make this an annual event – supporting, celebrating and spotlighting brand new, home grown art,” said Altshuler.
