Island City Stage to Host Talkback After ANGRY FAGS Performance, 12/13
"Angry Fags' is an uncompromising "Oscar Wilde-meets-Fight Club fantasia" about how good ideas go bad, with fascinating forays into American politics, GLBT rights and bomb building. The play follows Bennet, a speechwriter for Georgia's only gay congresswoman and his roommate Cooper as their fear and frustration turn to rage after the killing of Bennet's ex. They come to the conclusion that "acceptance" as second class citizens isn't enough and they quickly morph into a gay Thelma and Louise wreaking havoc with unintended consequences.
A panel of distinguished speakers will segue into an audience discussion on the themes and issues contained in the South Florida debut of the play. The panel members include:
- Dr. Gary M. Forrest, a local psychologist with multiple licenses and certifications in anger resolution therapy, substance abuse, Rapid Trauma Resolution, clinical hypnotherapy, couples counseling, and marriage and family therapy.
- Glenna Milberg, reporter for Local 10 News and co-host on Local 10's public affairs broadcast This Week in South Florida, who has covered an eclectic collection of stories from campaigns to crime.
- Sgt. Frank Pilewski, named Officer of the Year by the Wilton Manors Police Department, recipient of the department's Meritorious Service Award, and an authority on assault and violent crime.
Attendance at the discussion is free, following the Dec. 13 performance at Island City Stage, 2304 N. Dixie Hwy., Wilton Manors, FL 33305. Tickets for the play may be purchased at IslandCityStage.org or by calling 954-519-2533.
