THE BOYS ARE KISSING

Arthur-Schnitzler-Platz 1

1070 Wien

 

Chloe and Amira, Matt and Sarah – two couples living a seemingly perfect suburban life: yoga classes, brand-new kitchen islands, a trampoline in the backyard. But when their nine-year-old sons kiss in the schoolyard one day, everything is thrown into disarray. Summoned by the school administration to a meeting about the "incident," the four of them are suddenly plunged headlong into the heated culture wars of our time. Everyone wants to do the right thing – but what exactly is the right thing to do? And what on earth do you write in the parents' WhatsApp group?

Luckily, help is on the way – in the form of two winged guardian angels! The Celestial Order of Queer Guardians has, for eons, had the honor and damned task of guiding the queer people of this world through the jungle of life – on a divine

mission and with a healthy dose of drama…

The debut play by British-Iranian author Zak Zarafshan sparkles with sharp wit and quirky ideas, and became a sensation in London's West End. Martina Gredler, a Viennese resident by choice, brings this brilliant comedy about tolerance, double standards, and the secrets between parents and children to the stage in its German-language premiere.
