Camp Morning Wood — where self-loathing isn't optional. (Image by Aaron Cooper) As the NYC theater scene tentatively puts its toe in the water post-pandemic, it's no surprise that the bawdy musical Camp Morning Wood is taking the plunge early, and with gusto.
The show — performed largely in the raw by its hard-working cast — is back for a limited off-Broadway run at the Asylum Theatre in Chelsea, just in time for Pride, and without any shame.
Conceived and directed at a frenetic pace by Marc Eardley, the goodnatured show follows uptight Randy (Thomas Delgado), who, while obsessing over a just-out-of-reach twink, crashes his car deep in the woods, fortuitously close to notorious gay nudist let-it-all-hangout Camp Morning Wood.
