DRAMA/COMEDY

By Mart Crowley

Directed by Stuart Landon


About the Show:

The Boys in the Band centers on a group of gay men who gather in an NYC apartment for a friend’s birthday party. After the drinks are poured and the music is turned up, the evening slowly exposes the fault lines beneath their friendships and the self-inflicted heartache that threatens their solidarity.

A true theatrical game-changer, The Boys in the Band helped spark a revolution by putting gay men’s lives onstage—unapologetically and without judgment—in a world that was not yet willing to fully accept them.

Both bitingly funny and emotionally raw, this landmark play is as powerful today as it was in 1968.

Content note: This show contains some material that many parents would find unsuitable for children under 16.
