'Den of Thieves' presents weekend of comedy
Bowdoin’s Masque and Gown performed four showings of Stephen Adly Guirgis’ play Den of Thieves last weekend.
Directed by Jenni Stobiecki ’13, Den of Thieves follows four people who must come to terms with their respective addictions, shortcomings and faults when they are caught attempting to rob a TriBeCa disco. Tied to chairs in a mobster’s basement, they must decide who among them most deserves to die in reparation for their crimes.
The play uses the characters’ dialogue to explore stereotypes in a way that is both accessible and entertaining.
