Hello all,
Well, we're doing this show at the New Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, a gay man's story that has quite a lot in common with Heidi's magnum opus. If you're not simply a fan of the lovely and talented Miss H, but intrigued in exploring the vast reaches of the Mormon-turned-sex-worker genre, I highly recommend this show.
Here's a bit of our promo stuff:
Confessions of a Mormon Boy was first seen at NCTC in August, 2002. Since then, the show has toured the nation and been developed further in preparation for an Off- Broadway opening to be directed by Jack Hofsiss in the fall of 2005. It arrives directly from a sold out run at Bailiwick Repertory in Chicago, after the play won the Overall Excellence Award for a solo show during its sold out run at the 2004 New York International Fringe Festival.
Told with humor, song, and the Book of Mormon, in his unflinchingly honest comic/dramatic monologue, Steven Fales, a sixth-generation Mormon, plays various characters from his highly distinctive life’s journey as a gay Mormon, an Eagle Scout, missionary to Portugal, BYU graduate, husband, father, and Manhattan escort.
Come see what the all those critics are fussing about:
"Affecting, enlightening..." San Francisco Chronicle
"Fascinating." The Village Voice
"Hilarious." Chicago Sun-Times
"Uncommonly powerful." Chicago Tribune
"...honest, moving, whimsical...and cathartic." Miami Herald
The show previews this Wednesday the 13th, then opens offically Thursday the 14th. Tickets are $20 preview night, more afterwards. Full details here: www.nctcsf.org . If anyone's interested but on a tight budget, drop me a line and I'll see if I can arrange some two-for-one tickets or somesuch.
Cheers,
Kelly
