LACED Runs Oct. 20-23

UD_Laced logoLACED
University of Dayton
Oct. 20-23
Live-Streamed & Fritz Hall Black Box Theatre [Online | Dayton]

The night after a queer bar outside of Tampa, Florida is vandalized, three twenty-something bartenders gather to grieve, rage, and above all, piece together the events of the night before. Fiery and poetic, Laced, ferociously celebrates the spaces in which we find our truest selves. In a time of renewed culture wars against queer youth, this play centers the voices of those intersectional identities we should be listening to now.

9/30/21 COVID-19 Policy: For in-person audiences, masks are required. The three actors will be unmasked and are fully vaccinated.
