A Letter to Lyndon B Johnson or God; Whoever Reads this First

About the Show

Boyhood is all about spit-shakes, rope swings and playing soldiers. But what happens when the pretend becomes all too real and childhood tales become harder to retell? Whether it’s stories around the campfire, letters home to mom, or a prayer to your favourite president, these two Boy Scouts just want a turn to play the good guy and get their moms to see the big strong men they’ve become… Scout’s Honour. Drawing on their own experiences of being in military families comes this absurdist two-hander about the idealised American childhood, and the boys it left behind.
