Moving, surprising, and often unexpectedly funny, ”Boy Player” is the true story of what happened when Frank Moher was orphaned as a kid, and he suddenly found himself transplanted from Edmonton, Alberta to New York City. It's also about how he eventually met Diana, his wife, who had been through similar experiences as a child, and how finding your passion -- in Frank's case, theatre and Diana -- can change, and possibly save, your life. Filled with great musical theatre songs and sometimes deeply emotional, "Boy Player" will touch your heart, and lift it, too..
