Four

Azuka Theatre Company presents the Philadelphia premiere of Four, written by Christopher Shinn. Kevin Glaccum directs.

Four is a sparse, poetic look at the lives of four characters on Independence Day 1996. A 16-year-old boy named June, middle-aged Joe, his teenage daughter Abigayle and a low-level drug-dealer named Dexter pair off in an attempt to discover themselves through each other. Rules are broken and defenses dropped as these two mismatched couples seek to make a connection with anyone they can. Four provocatively explores the loss of sexual innocence across the ever-shifting boundaries of race, class and age.
