Synetic Theater will host a Pride Night in partnership with Freddie's Beach Bar at 555 23RD St. in Crystal City. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a pre-show reception and will continue at Synetic Theater with the 8 p.m. performance of Everett Quinton's Obie Award-Winning play A Tale of Two Cities, directed by Serge Seiden and starring Company Member Alex Mills.

Called "always fascinating" by The New York Times, A Tale of Two Cities is an irreverent comedy that tells the story of a drag queen named Jerry (Synetic Company Member Alex Mills) who finds a crying baby at his front door. To calm the child down, he enacts the entirety of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities - playing all the characters himself!
