Bastard: a family dramedy at the Purple Rose Theatre in Chelsea

On Thursday, October 8, 2026, at 3 p.m., the Purple Rose Theatre in Chelsea (137 Park Street) stages Bastard, Devin Scillian's dramedy about two brothers who share nothing but a last name: an aging country rocker and a buttoned-down financial whiz. Their mother's death reopens old wounds, and a new one could tear the family apart. Heads-up: adult language and subject matter.

What do an aging country rocker and a buttoned-down financial whiz have in common? Not much, except their last name. The Lambert brothers have never agreed on much, and now, with the death of their mother, old wounds resurface while a new one threatens to tear the family apart.

The dramedy comes from Devin Scillian: award-winning journalist, former WDIV-TV news anchor, author and musician. The Purple Rose Theatre stages it at 137 Park Street in Chelsea. The show contains adult language and subject matter.
