The Catamite
By Ben Parkhill
September 2021, Broadway Bound Theater Festival, Theater Row
A poor cross-country runner takes increasingly drastic action to stop his much wealthier teammate from applying for the scholarship on which he pinned his future, all while struggling to keep a cultish spiritual movement from pulling his already precarious life apart.
