Boy Gets Girl
By Rebecca Gilman
Directed by Caprice Woosley
Presented September 4-October 4, 2003 at 6th @ Penn


Stone Soup Theatre Company proudly presented the San Diego premier of the play Time Magazine calls the #1 play of the year: Boy Gets Girl by Rebecca Gilman. Boy Gets Girl is a tensely fascinating new play about a successful woman being followed by an obsessive stalker. The Chicago Tribune calls Boy Gets Girl “[A] provocative, unsettling play, further proof of Gilman’s ability to shake up a theatre audience with the power of her ideas—and words.”

Boy Gets Girl is a chilling play about a woman whose life of accomplishment is destroyed by a disturbed admirer.  Variety calls Boy Gets Girl “a suspenseful tale about the unraveling of a woman’s sense of security in the urban jungle. It certainly will touch a tender nerve with anybody who’s ever squirmed through a creepy blind date.”

Here's What the Critics Had to Say:

"Stone Soup company gives us a chilling date from hell...in the hands of this young company (mostly SDSU grads), the play leaves one creeped out, and thinking." --Anne Marie Welsh, San Diego Union-Tribune

"Caprice Woosely, Stone Soup A.D./co-founder, has directed with a confident hand; the taut, stomach- churning suspense never lets up. If you can stand looking into the dark abyss of human behavior, you can't do better than this. Excellent play, superb production." --Pat Launer, SD Theatre Scene

"From the downcast at the neck and eyes to the booming voice and fidgets at the wrists, Hess is a histrionic gem—she's adopted Theresa as her own and carries her scenes without obscuring the roles of the play's lesser personnel... this show is downright Brechtian in its usefulness as a public service." --Marty Jones Westlin, San Diego City Beat
