Philadelphia tells residents: Don’t swim in dumpster pools
PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia isurging residents not to swim in dump-sters after a rented trash bin was filledwith fire hydrant water and transformedinto a pool.The online news site Billy Penn firstreported the shenanigans at a weekendblock party. The party’s organizers toldthe site they power-washed the dump-ster, lined the bottom with plywood andtarps and cushioned the corners withpool noodles.However, filling it with hydrant watercaused the biggest issue with city offi-cials.The Department of Licenses andInspections issued a statement sayingthe city won’t issue permits for blockparty dumpster pools. Agency spokeswoman Karen Gusssaid, “you would think this decisionwould not require an explanation.”Among the reasons: It takes waterthat should be available in the event oa fire; the strong water pressure couldpush someone into harm’s way; and thehuge amount of water released couldcause a main break.“We are not screwing around, Philly,”Guss’ statement reads. “The city strong-ly recommends that residents opt forrecreational options that are safer, moresanitary and less likely to deplete theresources firefighters need in an emer-gency.”

Autism is a difficult diagnosis for parentsto accept. That’s true of the parents in OliverGoldstick’s “Wild Boy,” presented byDragon Theatre and based on “Not EvenWrong: Adventures in Autism,” a book byPaul Collins. Since three of the main characters arenamed after Collins, his wife Jennifer andtheir son Morgan, one assumes the play isbased on their real-life experiences. When their pediatrician suggests testingthat leads to a diagnosis of autism for theirtoddler son, Paul (Ryan O’Donnell) andJennifer (Olivia Haas) are in denial. Over time, however, they come to realizethat Morgan (Johnathan Tierney) is differ-ent and that they have to do whatever theycan to help him. In the meantime, Paul, a writer, is work-ing on a book about Peter, the Wild Boy(Tierney again), an apparently 12-year-oldferal boy who actually was found naked andmute in 1725 in a German forest by the manwho became England’s King George I (JohnStephen King). When he went to England to assume thethrone, George brought Peter along andturned him into a pet of sorts even thoughthe boy hated wearing clothes and wouldrather sleep on the floor than in a bed. Eventually he was sent to live with afarmer and others who looked after Peteruntil his death in 1785, when he wasprobably in his 70s. The play smoothly switches between18th century and present. The present ismore interesting because it’s more relevantto what many parents are experiencing asthey cope with their child’s autism. Paul and Jennifer never know what toexpect from Morgan, especially since helacks social skills and doesn’t speak. Thestress strains their marriage. One of the few people who seems to relateto Morgan on some level is a family friend,Marc (King again), who takes him on out-ings to give the parents a break. Directed by Ken Sonkin, the play calls foronly seven actors, but all except O’Donnellas Paul and Haas as Jennifer play multipleroles. The athletic Tierney as Morgan and Peterdoesn’t speak but mostly scrambles aboutthe stage as Peter and remains absorbed inhis own world as Morgan. King plays several other roles besidesGeorge I and Marc. Also playing multipleroles are Mary Lou Torre, Isabel Siragusa andBryan Moriarty. All of them manage to cre-ate separate personas for each of their char-acters. Running about two hours with one inter-mission, the play has an unsettled ending,but it does help one to understand what itmeans to be different and what it takes tocope with differences. “The Wild Boy” will continue throughAug. 21 at Dragon Theatre, 2120 Broadway,Redwood City. For tickets and informationcall (650) 493-2006 or visit dragonproduc-tions.net.
