2. Sunsets: Two Acts on a Beach

An evening of two plays set next to a men’s room on a Florida gulf coast beach – the sort of place where seaside frolics take a different turn when the sun goes down. Play One is a monologue featuring Henrietta, an aging former drag performer who finds a new life purpose in a most unusual type of social service. This character’s journey delves into the complexities of gay life with heavy yet authentic language. Play Two explores the developing relationship – physical and emotional - between Dan, a young, bi-curious, and married construction worker; and John, a forty-something realtor who is a regular visitor to this particular stretch of beach. The production is directed by Kevin Wood and contains nudity.
