They may go to the same school, but misfits Solomon, Diwata and Howie have never met and their teachers and peers just don't take them seriously – until a sex scandal involving one of their teachers brings them together.

This is the premise of Stephen Karam's wonderful play Speech & Debate. LA Theatre works brings it alive tonight. Listen in at 8 PM PST or 10 PM PST for the show in it's entirety through Bosco Radio: Nostalgia and Entertainment or your favorite public radio station including KPCC FM 89.3 in the Los Angeles area.
