A tight-knit group of gay men reunite in Palm Springs for a weekend of rekindling friendships, drinking poolside margaritas, and the biggest highlight: recording a lip-synched music video. Turns out a vacation in this dreamy town is not all fun and games when there’s gossip and grudges floating in the air. To My Girls is a hysterical yet deeply moving play about chosen family and how we move forward as a community in times of change and uncertainty. Pool floats, margaritas, and a little drama never hurt anybody.

Founded in 1986, Diversionary Theatre is recognized as one of San Diego’s best theatres, and proudly showcases the most vibrant and diverse group of talent the city has to offer. We aim to foster and amplify the next generation of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other marginalized voices by providing the local community with live entertainment in a dynamic, inclusive, and welcoming environment that celebrates and preserves our unique culture. Diversionary Theatre began as a forum to shed light on the important social issues affecting the quality of life of LGBTQ+ people, namely the AIDS crisis and its immediate and devastating impact on the community through the performing arts.
