My Dad's Kid

Beverly Hills Playhouse
254 S. Robertson Blvd Beverly Hills

In one cramped apartment, two versions of their father collide, buried secrets surface, old grudges, quick laughs and one long-avoided truth spills out. He's stuck; she's sprinting. A witty, big-hearted two-hander about family, identity, reinvention and a father myth that won't stay tidy. A funny, tender two-hander rewrites the story of family-and self.

"...Unfortunately, My Dad's Kid, currently in its world premiere at Beverly Hills Playhouse, is no War and Peace. Playwright Eric Toms stretches out what should have been a sweet, character-driven two-hander into a protracted muddle that overstays its welcome by a good hour."

"...Just like other relationships, the bond between a brother and sister can be ripe with resentment, pain, and name-calling. And when the siblings in question are merely "half-siblings," how do the rules change? What common bonds can be discovered, given a sizable age gap and two very different experiences with the shared parent? In Eric Toms' serio-comedic play My Dad's Kid, having its world premiere at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, Greg and Pamela realize they need each other's tough love to deal with their respective life struggles."
