In Noel Coward's time, and when one of his last plays, A SONG AT TWILIGHT was written in 1966, it must have been shocking to have the possible outing of a closeted gay man be the driving force of a plot. In 2014, when such a play is just one of a plethora of stories written by men, featuring male characters and very often, gay men's issues, we have to wonder why two of Connecticut's theaters have chosen to include a revival of it on their stages this season (currently it's at Hartford stage through March 16. It moves to Westport Country Playhouse April 29), especially when there are so many other great plays out there just begging to be produced.

The play, directed by Robert Coppel, runs from February 7th through March 2nd, Todays and Saturdays at 8 PM and Sundays at 2 PM. Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for seniors (62+), and $18 for students with valid ID, and are available on the website www.mainstreetplayers.com and at the door. The Main Street Playhouse is located at 6766 Main Street in Miami Lakes, across from Johnny Rockets restaurant. Further information is available on the website or at (305)558-3737.
