You won't want to miss a well-told coming of age story being presented via Chandler on-line this coming Friday July 17th, at 7:30 PM.
The Homosexuals, by Philip Dawkins, covers 10 years in the life of a young gay man from a small town, who must come to the city to find his community. Directed by Richard Waterhouse, with a talented cast half from Vermont and half from away.
About Mr. Dawkins' script, Playscripts wrote: "Moving backwards from 2010, this play traces ten years in the life of Evan, a gay man who fled small-town Iowa for Chicago at the dawn of the new millennium. Evan's close-knit group of friends and lovers help him navigate issues of romance, illness, and self-acceptance in a world where changing attitudes towards gays mean changing identities within the gay community. A love letter to friendship, to acceptance, and to the families we choose, rather than the ones we inherit."
Immediately after the play, there will be a live Q&A with Mr. Waterhouse and his cast members.
Tickets are $10 each, and can be purchased at www.chandler-arts.org.
