The House Theatre is currently running The Boy Detective Fails, which playwright Joe Meno has adapted into a forthcoming novel. Joe Meno himself will be joining The House for two talkback sessions after the shows on Thursday, June 15 and Sunday, June 18.

The talkbacks are free and open to the public, so you don’t have to see the play (but you should). The Thursday talkback is at (about) 10:20 pm and the Sunday at 9:20 pm Sunday, both at The Viaduct Theatre (3111 N Western).

The shows are also the only place to get copies of the novel until July (direct from Punk Planet Books) or September (in bookstores). I enjoyed the play but was blown away by the book, so get on that.
