Humble Boy

First you will laugh and then you will cry.

Humble Boy, a 2001 work by British playwright Charlotte Jones. opens on the day of James Humble’s funeral. James, a biology teacher and bee keeper, has died of a heart attack or so we are told in Act I. His adult son, Felix, has been reduced to stuttering and has been unable to deliver the eulogy.

During the two acts every human emotion and foible will be exposed. And just when you think there will be no more revelations...

Locals need to make a beeline (sorry) to catch the play at Dobama through the end of the month.
