Old Fashioned Love Story at TADA!/28th Street Theater

In this darkly funny solo play, a young gay New Yorker navigates art, ambition, and alcoholism as he falls into a ten-year relationship with a brilliant fashion designer. At the piano, he revisits the love that sustained him, nearly undid him, and demanded a reckoning with sobriety.
