Bocking, a wildly irreverent new comedy making its world premiere at Baltimore Center Stage. This scandalous satire begins when two children innocently repeat what they overheard at home, landing their very embarrassed parents in the principal’s office. What follows is a chaotic and hilarious unraveling involving a preacher, a so-called gay exorcism, and a mysterious chicken named Danalana Parmesana.

As the parents scramble to contain the damage, long-buried secrets, personal quirks, and social taboos rise to the surface. Blending sharp humor with outrageous theatricality, Bocking explores the collision between public respectability and private desire, all wrapped in a fast-paced romp that refuses to behave. It is bold, absurd, and unapologetically cheeky. 

Bock bock, muthacluckers!
