A Love Like Damien's
What often gets overlooked in discussions regarding politics and social change is that the issues, however mobilizing and polarizing they may be, all have intersections with the personal, and it is in people's daily lives, sometimes the smallest of settings, that these issues have the largest and most powerful impact.
I am happy to be associated with the production of the second run of a play that demonstrates this, A Love Like Damien's. The issue addressed is homophobia and the Black church, and a young man's struggle with acceptance. An interesting script and some strong performances, with elements of dance and humor, as well as wonderful music, this show will leave audiences wonderfully entertained, and with much to think about and discuss.

Tell your friends, family, church people, and co-workers A Love Like Damien's, the show The New York Blade has called "a high-spirited pay off" and the show POZ Magazine says is "part of a new theater movement," is moving to SoHo in November!
