Creator and Producer Stephan Durell Davis along with Actor and Producer Max Rhyser, Vocalist Kimberly Michelle Thomas, Music Director and Lead Arranger Matt Podd and Co-Arranger Ben Wexler have joined forces to create ALL LOVE IS DIVINE, a new musical film for LGBT youth.

Inspired by timeless jazz ballads and black and white films, ALL LOVE IS DIVINE is planned for release on June 12, 2015, which is "Loving Day", the 48th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision that allowed interracial marriage in the United States. The short film tells the story of an interracial gay couple from their first embrace through their wedding day.

"Although we are beginning to see more representations of gays and lesbians in the media, LGBT youth still do not have the same access to films and other works of art that convey the romantic fantasies their heterosexual counterparts enjoy so freely," said Davis, who wrote the music and lyrics and created the concept for the film. "With help from our donors, ALL LOVE IS DIVINE will contribute to an important body of work aiming to fill this void."

"The project comes at a critical moment, as gays and lesbians across the globe await the U.S. Supreme Court's decision on marriage equality," added Davis. "The storyline centers on a boy who has a crush on another boy and a dream to get married and live happily ever after. Unfortunately, like so many LGBT kids, he wakes up to find that his dream is immoral, inappropriate and, worst of all, illegal."

"ALL LOVE IS DIVINE brings the important messages of inclusion and acceptance to a wide audience," said Thomas. "We are all equal in all things and that's all that matters."

Davis is an acclaimed saxophonist who performed alongside Aretha Franklin on the eve of President Barack Obama's 2009 inauguration as well as a Doctoral student at Yale working to improve health outcomes in the LGBT community. Rhyser is the creator of the popular web series In Between Men whose first music video for Kiesza's Hideaway reached 200 million views and created an overnight star. Thomas performed for America's troops with the USO and has appeared in Dreamgirls, Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story and 'Swonderful.

Podd has composed music for the New York Pops and performed at such venues as St. Patrick's Cathedral and Symphony Space. Wexler, who conducted The Public Theater's production of Fun Home, is the resident composer for A Broader Way, an arts-immersion program for girls founded by Idina Menzel and Jeanine Tesori.

Barry's, founded in 1998, introduced a group workout regimen that combines equal length intervals of cardio (treadmill runs) and floor work (weight training, resistance exercises) in a one-hour workout that can burn mucho calories. Independent observers (like Livestrong.com) have verified that a Barry's workout can burn 1,000 calories in an hour. Your mileage may vary, but we've seen clients burn from 700 to 1,300, depending on their body weight and effort level. You will be alternating between treadmill and floor work in segments that may last as little as 5 minutes each or as much as 30 minutes each, depending on the plan for that day, although 10-15 minutes per round is most common. All of this is combined in a club-like environment with a highly motivating personal trainer guiding you, with flattering lighting and the best sound system pumping a mix of music that is guaranteed to keep you moving.

Never forget Courtney's personal motto: WERQ. What can be said about superstar Instructor Courtney Paul? Here's one: he is crazy!

This man lays awake at night, concocting new ways to torture his devoted clients in order to get them the bodies they crave.
