"Boats on a River," a new play by Julie Marie Myatt, can be
distinguished both by what it is and by what it is not.

"As part of the Guthrie New Play Program, 11 writers were presented
with the opportunity to conduct research anywhere in the world for an
experience that would fuel the creation of a new play. Three years
after Julie Marie Myatt began her journey, her play Boats on a River
will be the first of these plays to receive a world premiere.

Boats on a River is an unflinching look into the world of
sex-trafficking in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, through the eyes of Western
aid workers at a rescue shelter. Poignant, smart, and at times
humorous, the play renders these characters fully human as they
attempt to help the young girls whose innocence has been sold to
paying customers.

This production contains smoking."

Yep - definetly about boats.

What does that review you quoted have to say about the odd morality of
modern society? "Movie is about the sale of children into sex slavery
in an emerging third world nation. Caution....production includes
smoking!"

But about boats... off shortly for our first multiple night cruise of
the year. Sun is shining, birds are singing, it's almost 60
degrees........heck, might as well be summer here in Seattle. :-)
