Award Winning Daddy Starring Dan Via, Mia Matthews, Gerald McCullouch in Theater’s April 8

Colin McCormack thinks he has it all – a great job, a steady stream of hot younger guys, and a best friend whose devotion he takes for granted. But when a charming and mercurial intern sweeps him off his feet, Colin sees a chance for something more: A family of his own. What he discovers instead is a shattering secret that may cost Colin everything — and everyone — he holds dear. By turns funny, heartbreaking and hopeful, DADDY explores the universal need for love and connection, and the evolving understanding of “family” in today’s rapidly changing world. Following a buzz-heavy world premiere in New York and an extended run in LA, the critical smash play by actor Dan Via is now coming to the big screen, directed by Gerald McCullouch.
