TAPE

It's 1999, and Jon, an aspiring filmmaker on the verge of hitting it big, gets together for the weekend with his best friend from high school, Vince. What starts as a friendly hangout devolves into something darker as memories from their high school days begin to surface, and one person is at the center of it all: Amy, Vince's ex-girlfriend. Tensions rise throughout the evening as old friends dissect differing perceptions of what happened between them. Beneath its suspenseful, high-stakes surface, this dark comedy examines questions of power, misogyny, and motives for seemingly righteous acts.
Understudy Performance: The 2pm show on Saturday, March 22 features Nicholas Russo as JON, Nathan LoPinto as VINCE, and Riley Vance as AMY.
Content Warning: Tape contains mature themes and explicit language. The play addresses sensitive topics such as sexual assault and the emotional trauma resulting from past events.
