Parts Other:
extras (With doubling 4 M, 2 F)
Notes: Performance Time: Approximately 90 minutes
Synopsis: Winner of the Drama-Logue Award for Writing. This collection of monologues is based on interviews with gay and lesbian teenagers who participated in a series of writing workshops sponsored by the City of Los Angeles. This poignant, and at times, humorous play chronicles the lives of 14 teens and the challenges they face as they struggle with issues of identity and acceptance. After honing his 'gay-dar' skills, Roger begins to suspect that his mother is a lesbian because she listens to Melissa Etheridge music and likes the movie Basic Instinct. Bernie's parents think that her desire to date girls is some sort of lesbian phase that she is going through, and Dave, a homeless teen, describes what life is like living on the streets. Audiences will find this production both powerful and engaging.
