NCTC Presents Anita Bryant Died For Your Sins 9/17-10/24
By: Gabrielle Sierra
It's 1977... There's a global recession, double- digit unemployment, and the fight for equal rights for gay Americans... sound familiar?
Fifteen year-old Horace Poore is trying to make sense of the tumultuous events surrounding him -- and the tumultuous events within him.
Horace's sexual awakening is hastened by images of Olympic swimmer Mark Spitz and former pageant queen/orange juice promoter/anti-gay crusader Anita Bryant in this unconventional look at a young man's coming-of-age.
The mission of the New Conservatory Theatre center is to champion innovative, high-quality theatre experiences for youth, adults, and artists to effect personal and societal growth, enlightenment, and change.
