Theatre of the Expendable presents the New York City premier of CHERRY DOCS, directed by playwright, David Gow. The original production of CHERRY DOCS was nominated for a Dora Prize, A Governor Generals Prize, a Chalmers Award, and The Siminovitch Prize for Playwriting. CHERRY DOCS has been previously produced in Philadelphia, Chicago, Toronto and Berlin and is slated to be produced at The King's Heads Theatre in London. David Gow also adapted CHERRY DOCS into the indie film "Steel Toes" starring David Strathairn and Andrew Walker. The film played in limited release in America and has been in over 50 film festivals including The Beverely Hills Film Festival where it won Best Feature Film (2007). This production of CHERRY DOCS marks David Gow's first time directing his play for the stage.
Summary: A Neo-Nazi Skinhead is on trial for a racially motivated murder and is being defended by a court appointed liberal Jewish lawyer. Over the course of the trial each man finds his belief system challenged as he is forced to delve into his own conscience and to reluctantly examine the limits of his own prejudices.
