Brown Box Theatre Project To Kick Off Season In OC

BERLIN — The Brown Box Theatre Project has announced the inaugural show of its 2014 season, the contemporary comedy “Two Wrongs” by playwright and Hawaii Five-0 star Scott Caan.

“Two Wrongs” presents the story of Shelly and Terry, a pair of neurotics whose love lives become entangled due to the unethical meddling of their therapist, Julian. This play’s sharp dialogue turns an amused eye on the couples’ suspicions, confessions, self-deceptions and self-deprecations, portraying the social hazards of living an examined life.

“Two Wrongs” made its world premiere at the Lounge Theatre in Los Angeles in 2010, to the enthusiasm of critics. The Los Angeles Times praised Caan’s writing as “clever… earmarked by bursts of ameliorating humor that are both welcoming and disarming.”

The play’s inclusion in Brown Box’s season demonstrates the company’s commitment to presenting fresh works from young playwrights.

“This play is different than anything you have seen from us before,” said Brown Box Executive Director Kyler Taustin. “It is a fast-paced, witty love story, perfect for Valentine’s Day weekend.”

Brown Box’s production will run from Feb. 14-17 at the Ocean City Center for the Arts Tickets are now on sale. Visit Brown Box’s website, brownboxtheatre.org, for more information.
