Jet Boy Jet Girl focuses on Jacob, a freshman in high school. When Jacob has his first cigarette with Shane, a senior and the school’s resident ‘bad boy’, his whole life is thrown into turmoil. For one, his friendship with ‘the nice boy next door’ Dan is in danger of collapsing. Jacob is also confused by his feelings for Shane, and, to top it all off, Jacob is surprised by his emotions regarding the disappearance of a young girl from his small town. Jet Boy Jet Girl is a bold new play about finding the balance between who you are and who you want to be, friendships in crisis, and the difficulties of growing up in a culture of sexual ambivalence.
