STORY: When Brendan Diggs' mother finds a nudie magazine in his bedroom, she decides to teach her son a lesson in respect for women--Brendan will be spending his last year of high school at the Farnesworth School for Girls. Can a trash-talking b-boy be redeemed? Will Brendan woo his lady love, the man-hating Austen? All these questions will be answered in this madcap production where we ask ourselves, is it really all about the snatch?

BUZZ: Sort of a combination of Boyz in the Hood and an intelligent American Pie is how actor Billy Rock '03 describes Snatch, a play which confronts serious issues of race and gender, but isn't lacking in its good share of ribaldry. Writer, director, and producer Frankie Petrosino has her hands full, but promises a good time: "It's going to be a great show, lots of laughs and profanity." Intimately staged in Loker Coffeehouse, Snatch should make for a more informal, but no less lively, production.
