Abstract

''Good Boys and True,'' about a scandal at a prep school, is a standard-issue issue play written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and acted competently by a likable cast. The brouhaha in question, unfortunately, is likely to inspire more stifled yawns than furrowed brows or raised consciousnesses. The incident driving this blunt drama, directed by Scott Ellis, which opened Monday night at the Second Stage Theater, is a sex tape circulating among the jocks at an elite boys' school near Washington. The year is 1988, which I suspect is Mr. Aguirre-Sacasa's attempt to inoculate the play against a cosmic shrug on the part of the audience. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
