University of Colorado graduate Matt Murphy is a rising New York theatre producer whose breakout hit is now entering its third provocative year off-Broadway. He's also touring the show to cities like Denver, where it is now playing the Garner-Galleria Theatre through July 24. Below, BroadwayWorld brings you a first look at the trailer for 'Sex Tips for Straight Women from a Gay Man'.
"As the producer and writer, I do think people naturally assume I'm 'the gay man,'" Murphy said last week in an interview joined by his wife and three wee children. "I'm totally good with that. And I am kind of a gay guy anyway, because I work on Broadway."
Murphy, who has been a smaller part of large New York producing teams such as Side Show, Memphis and Altar Boyz, formed his own Production Company because he wanted a more direct hand in the creative and financial decision-making. He has since turned The Berenstein Bears LIVE! into an Off-Broadway cottage industry. And 10 blocks up the street on New York's Eighth Avenue, he's exploring ... well, the opposite of children's theatre.
Sex Tips for Straight Women from a Gay Man is Murphy's own adaptation of the best-selling 1997book by Dan Anderson and Maggie Berman. He picked it because he's a producer - "and this is the best title in the history of mankind," he said. "You can't say it without laughing."
