Any parent understands the overwhelming dread a mandatory parent-teacher conference can bring. Children know no bounds in embarrassing their parents, from eating glue to pulling the cute girl’s hair or talking back to the teacher. But even your family’s black sheep will look little more than high-spirited compared to the child at the center of Johanna Adam’s new play, Gidion’s Knot. Kitchen Dog Theater, 3120 McKinney Ave., presents this heart-wrenching play about a conversation between a mother and her son’s teacher that unravels in unexpected, shocking ways. Opens 8 p.m. Thursday with performances through April 26. Tickets start at $15. More info at kitchendogtheater.org.
Thursdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m.; Sun., April 6, 2 p.m.; Wed., April 9, 8 p.m.; Sun., April 13, 2 p.m.; Wed., April 23, 8 p.m. Starts: April 3. Continues through April 26, 2014
