'Boy Gets Girl,' which opens tonight, Feb. 3, at the Old Town Playhouse at The Depot, is about Theresa, a classic single city dweller who is focused on her career and keeping her personal life guarded. A blind date with Tony, who at first seems harmless, turns from awkward to menacing, sending Theresa from trepidation to terror.
Tickets are $13 (or $65 for a group of five) plus fees, available at www.oldtownplayhouse.com, by calling 947-2210 or at the box office, 148 E. Eighth St. Performances continue through Feb. 18.
