ZANNA, DON'T! Now Playing Thru April 25 at Desert Stages
by BWW News Desk - April 25, 2010
Zanna, Don't! is now playing at Desert Stages through April 25, 2010. Zanna, Don't! is set in a world where homosexuality is the norm, and heterosexuals are considered an oddity. The town is called Heartsville, USA. All of the characters are homosexual, or so we think, until one bold student writes a musical about forbidden heterosexual attraction in the army, and the true, closeted desires of two of the cast members come to the surface. A world much like our own and the chaos that ensues when people love who they want to, gay or straight.
