Huntington Theater presents K-I-S-S-I-N-G

Huntington Theater presents, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, a co-production with the Front Porch Arts Collective at The Calderwood Pavilion in the South End and runs through Sunday, April 2.

The play from Boston native, Lenelle Moïse, is a heart-opening story that according to the online description will appeal to “fans of David Bowie, bell hooks, and fireworks by the Charles”. Unsure what to make of that but I do like Bowie. The story focuses on Lala an artist who uses the back of pizza boxes as her canvas. A sweet and sticky summer inspires her to romance Dani, a budding feminist – and Albert, his smooth-talking twin. What could possibly go wrong?

Sergio and I have plans to check out this play next week. Tickets are incredibly reasonable, making this a great option for a date or night out with friends. I highly recommend reserving time after to grab a drink at The Kartal to extend the evening out and to discuss the show.

Chicken & Biscuits: December 9, 2022 – January 8, 2023

I wanted to give a shout out to a theater company I only recently became aware of called The Front Porch Arts Collective. Since it was formed five years ago, the Black theater company has aimed to bring greater racial equity to the Boston theater community. Their production of Douglas Lyons’s “Chicken & Biscuits” at Suffolk University’s Modern Theatre marks their first solo staging. Tickets are very affordable ($25 for adults and $15 for students).

About Chicken & Biscuits
This raucous family comedy is full of laughter and love, and it will leave you begging for seconds. The Jenkins family is coming together to celebrate the life of their father—hopefully without killing each other! But any hopes for a peaceful reunion unravel when a family secret shows up at the funeral

I would like to the Front Porch Arts Collective much luck and hope to get to see this production before it closes next month. You can learn more about this theater company, here.
