Boogieban: The Play: Two Actors

By D.C. Fidler

This is a book of the play Boogieban for two-actors. This version premiered at None Too Fragile Theatre in Akron, Ohio in 2018 and won the 2018 Cleveland Critics Circle Award for Best Premier of a New Play and Best Actor. In 2019 it played in Chicago and Off-Broadway in New York. This book format contains more stage directions than the script in order to help readers upon first reading easily imagine what could be happening upon the stage. The play is about Lawrence Caplan, a Vietnam War veteran who became a military psychiatrist. Caplan is retiring after losing his own son in Afghanistan. Before leaving, he is ordered to assess one last soldier, a young specialist, who stubbornly insists that he is "good to go" back to his unit in Afghanistan. Caplan soon discovers the soldier is tortured by nightmares and flashbacks. The soldier's story begins to lift Caplan's amnesia for his own horrors in Vietnam. The two men launch on parallel journeys of the heart that change them forever.
