On Stage

Suburbia
The aimless world of a group of twenty-somethings is explored in Eric Bogosian’s “Suburbia,” presented by Nassau Community College’s Department of Theatre and Dance. The play’s main character, Jeff, is an aimless soul unsure of his future. His friends include his would-be artist girlfriend, a recovering alcoholic and a troubled young discharged military man. When an old friend who is now a rock star shows up one evening looking to reconnect with the group, the characters must confront the lies and excuses that have kept them trapped in a shallow and meaningless
existence.
Thursday through Saturday, Dec. 6-8, 8 p.m.; Sunday, Dec. 9, 3 p.m. $9, $7 seniors. Nassau Community College’s Mainstage Theatre, Garden City. (516) 572-7676.
