The Aliens

Studio Theatre
1501 14th St. NW Washington

The dingy back alley of a sleepy Vermont coffeehouse is home to trash bins, weathered patio furniture, and two affable slackers. KJ and Jasper fill their languid days with Bukowski references, low-key jam sessions, and 'shroom-spiked tea. When smart but awkward teen Evan, a new employee, attempts to evict them from their makeshift perch, KJ and Jasper recruit him as their unlikely protegee over a summer of small triumphs and quiet, unforeseen devastations. From the critically acclaimed writer of Circle Mirror Transformation, this artful and indelible drama is a subtle ode to the truth and compassion hidden in unexpected people and places.
