(ENGLEWOOD, NJ) -- Take a peek at Black Box Performing Arts Center's current production of Nicky Silver’s Fat Men in Skirts, running just four more shows this weekend! Performances are Thursday through Sunday at 8:00pm. Tickets can be purchased at www.BlackBoxPAC.com at $40 for adults and $35 for students/seniors.

Family life comes unhinged in this ever-hilarious, certifiably insane, and at times poignant, comedy. After 11 year-old Bishop and his mother, Phyllis, are stranded on a desert island after a plane crash, sanity unravels and passions fly. Meanwhile, at home, dad/husband Howard is having an affair with a giddy young actress, Pam. The twists, the turns, the horror, and the ludicrous converge as the four characters attempt to gain the audience’s sympathy - even at each other’s expense. 

Content Warning: Graphic Violence, Strong Language, Sensitive Subject Matters, Sexual Content

“Fat Men in Skirts — as dark and, at times, gruesome as it is — is ultimately a comedy... it’s so gleefully “out there” you can’t look away," said Jay Lustig.

Masks are required by all audience members at all times, and there is no eating or drinking inside the theater. Attendees will also be asked to fill out a COVID screening form for contact tracing purposes. Operating at limited capacity with only a select number of seats available, patrons must order tickets ahead of time to guarantee admission. Black Box Performing Arts Center is located at 49 E Palisade Ave in Englewood, New Jersey.
