Directed By: Bill Egan

Starring: Ted Powell, Nicholas Troy and Erikka Walsh

Hugging The Shoulder is an intense, 90-minute play centering on a young man, Derrick (Nicholas Troy) who kidnaps his older brother, Jeremy (Ted Powell) and takes him on a grueling road trip to conquer his heroin addiction. Mile after mile their relationship is stretched to the limit as the two brothers' repressed memories and hidden motivations are mercilessly exposed. Hugging the Shoulder is a play about the tragedy of missed opportunities. It explores the relationship between addiction and love, and is a plea for us to do what sometimes is the hardest thing of all: to forgive ourselves.

  "...Bogard's script displays the subtlety of a mature Sam Shepard play..."

"Original, moving, and worth its weight in gold."
-- SoCal.com


"Bogard artfully juxtaposes noble needs such as love and security with baser cravings,"

-- showmag.com

Bogard's intelligently observed voice makes him a welcome addition to the panoply of American playwrights, and certainly one to keep an eye on.
