Humble Boy August 6, 2010

WHO: Ken Bacon and Marin Actors' Workshop presents...
WHAT: "Humble Boy"
By Charlotte Jones
Following its first theatrical production of “Death and the Maiden” in 2009, The Marin Actors’ Workshop turns to comedy with "Humble Boy."
After the sudden death of his father, Cambridge astrophysicist Felix Humble returns to his charming English countryside home where his complicated past and domineering mother unveil circumstances that are less than ideal. With humor, horticulture, honey bees and hints of Shakespeare's "Hamlet," this English import is as funny as it is touching. "Humble Boy" received the 2001 London Critics' Circle Theatre Award for "Best New Play."
Directed by Terry McGovern
