Synopsis: Written in 1970 by legendary queer playwright Lanford Wilson. At seventeen, Alan visits the California home of his father and his father’s former mistress turned wife. His father’s life now centers around his two young sons, a tiresome job at an aircraft plant, and two teenage girls who are boarded with the family by the state. Will Alan get the love and support of a father he so desperately wants and needs?
The Cast: Jamie Heinlein (TOSOS’s Pride House, and Penny Penniworth); Jake Mendes (Off-Broadway: Bunnicula, Pinkalicious!); Dawson Sciacca; Raquel Sciacca; Hannah Snow; Tom Souhrada (Broadway & National Tours: Mary Poppins; Kinky Boots,; Evita; My Fair Lady; The King & I; and The Boy Friend, directed by Julie Andrews); and Sean-Edward Varner.
The Flea Theater is at 20 Thomas Street, New York, NY.
