Twin f-bombs open this show and a woman crying out into the night closes it. Brooklyn-based director Molly-Margaret Johnson returns to Minnesota, collaborating with her high school bud — local poet Kaleb Worst — for a play that will puzzle you, kind of like young love does (which is also the play's theme). There's violin, interpretive dance, beat boxing, a brief Queen rendition. If you get lost in the threads of metaphor, just relax and enjoy the convincing and tender love of the same-sex, interracial couple at the play's center. (1 p.m. Sat., 8:30 p.m. Mon., 5:30 p.m. Aug. 13, 7 p.m. Aug. 14,Theater in the Round, 245 Cedar Av., Mpls.)
