About Face Theatre Presents THE PRIDE at Richard Christiansen Theater, Now Through 7/13
Get ready for the show of the summer as About Face Theatre presents the Chicago Premiere of THE PRIDE! Two story lines, fifty years apart.
Set in London, Alexi Kaye Campbell's time-shifting play THE PRIDE maps the progression of the gay rights movement from the repression of the fifties to the freedom of today through the fate of two twisted love triangles.
In 1958, Philip is married to Sylvia but in love with Oliver. In 2008, Oliver is addicted to public sex with strangers, so Philip leaves him. Sylvia has to pick up the pieces.
THE PRIDE is a sharp, witty portrait of urban gay couples and the punishing consequences of liberation. THE PRIDE runs from June 6 - July 13 at Victory Gardens' Richard Christiansen Theater. Show times are Thursdays and Fridays at 7:30 pm; Saturdays at 5 pm and 9 pm; and Sundays at 5 pm.
