The celebration culminates in a post show party at Below Zero Lounge.

“GLBT Night began as a special event during Season 17 in conjunction with ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’,” said Managing Director, Lettie Van Hemert. “It was so well received that we knew we had to do it again soon. It’s a great way for us to reinforce our mission of bringing the classics to life for all audiences.”
