Performance

Boyfriend Material

0 upcoming performances in New York

“Boyfriend Material” arrives in New York as JR De Guzman’s stage take on the rom‑com idea of a public image rebuilt through an unlikely relationship. Drawing on the premise of a rock‑adjacent antihero and a buttoned‑up professional, the show uses stand‑up storytelling and pop‑leaning music to map intimacy, reputation, and self‑presentation. It plays at UCB Theatre and Sony Hall, placing a personal narrative inside two rooms central to the city’s comedy and live‑music circuit. The material’s sharpest point is its attention to how love stories get shaped by the crowd watching.
