The Park is a drama that focuses on the lives of three teenage boys each living with a secret. The boys talk about things that are happening in their lives but tend not to divulge their true personal thoughts and feelings to one another. For example, the bruise on Tony’s left eye, the amount of ‘p*ssy’ JC gets and the fact that Marvin gets all the p*ssy he needs now that he has a girl friend, but the young men never delve deeper than the surface. As the sun begins to set, the boys say their good byes and this is where the drama unfolds.
