THE PINK is an intimate play about the power of queer love. We follow a liaison which starts as an evening of passion and ends in a transformative experience of bodies, minds and spirits. As two humans, Mel and Herman, grasp for “the real” in the bedroom, their conversations, silences, and moments of touch blur the lines between affection, sex, and euphoric romance.
THE PINK was originally commissioned by Primary Stages as part of their inaugural Creative Access Grant Reading Series, dedicated to amplifying the work of underrepresented communities and artists. The play received an initial reading with Breaking the Binary Theatre in association with Primary Stages at 59E59 in April of 2023.
