Standing On Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays - A funny, provocative evening of new plays by award-winning playwrights starring a rotating celebrity cast to benefit marriage equality. This engaging theatrical event of nine exciting short plays includes a "wedding reception" audience talkback following each performance. Come for the shows but stay for the cake! A portion of the net proceeds will benefit the work of the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center.
