Photo Coverage: First Look at Evolution Theatre Company's YANK! THE MUSICAL

YANK! explores what it means to be a man, and what it is to fall in love and struggle to survive in a time and place where the odds are stacked against you. Suffused with songs (swing, big band, boogie-woogie) it explores what stories get told in wartime, and how WWII became the great catalyst in bringing gay men and women together. While all the characters in Yank! are fictional, all of the situations and viewpoints come directly from memoirs and oral histories of gay (and straight) service members who took part in WWII.

Check out a first look below!

Performances run May 27 thru June 6th. For tickets and more info visit http://evolutiontheatre.org/
