The Boys in the Band represents a major milestone in American theatre as the first play to openly portray the pleasures, miseries and private lives of gay men. The Boys in the Band is set during Harold's 32nd birthday party.  The evening begins as a hilarious and spirited celebration among friends until unexpected guests and games reveal tensions that unravel these men's souls.  The party moves to a heart-wrenching, and climactic end.  The Boys in the Band originally played Off-Broadway in 1968 and opened as a major motion picture in 1970.  Don't miss this rare opportunity to see one of the theatre's most groundbreaking and important plays.
