BTC review | CityBeat review |

A powerful, electrifying work by the playwright whom many regard as the finest American playwright of the late 20th Century. Presented both in Los Angeles and on Broadway to critical and popular acclaim, the play probes deeply and humorously into the lives of its singular characters. After the death of Robby, a roommate, friend and collaborator in her professional dance career, Anna is haunted by his family’s ignorance of him being gay. Shortly after his death, Robby’s brother Pale shows up to claim Robby’s belongings and piece together the missing parts of his life. Together with Anna, he works to unravel the secrets of a person they both loved.

Directed by Timothy Waldrip

Cast: Nathan Neorr as Pale, Gina Cerimele-Mechley as Anna, Jason Burgess as Larry & John Wilmes as Burton
