    Playwright/Performer, Rob Nash in conjunction with Tony Award Nominated Director, Jeff Calhoun present HOLY CROSS SUCKS!, a comic journey through those unforgettable years of high school, starring Rob Nash as an ensemble cast that includes “the virgin”, “the nerd”, “the homo”, “the punk”, “the fat kid”, and “the slut.”  Welcome back to the 80’s and the formative years that traumatized us all!  In the spirit of  teen film classics Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Fast Times At Ridgemont High, HOLY CROSS SUCKS! follows three best friends as they navigate those painful, life-defining, and humiliating years of high school. We're never as vulnerable and as vicious, as beautiful and as ugly, as idealistic and apathetic, and as vain and as humble as when we're adolescents.  Playing a full cast of beloved and reviled characters, Nash explores these paradoxes with biting humor, insight, and a killer soundtrack.
