Booth Theatre (Broadway)
222 West 45th St. New York, NY
In his upper eastside Manhattan apartment, Michael is throwing a birthday party for Harold, a self-awoved "32 year-old, pock-marked, Jew fairy", complete with surprise gift: "Cowboy" a street hustler. As the evening wears on, fueled by drugs and alcohol, bitter, unresolved resentments among the guests come to light when a game of "Truth" goes terribly wrong.

Broadway Review: ‘The Boys in the Band’
8 / 10
Festivities are certainly in order for this superbly mounted 50th anniversary production of 'The Boys in the Band,' Mart Crowley's breakthrough 1968 play about Manhattan gay life - still largely underground in an era that preceded both Stonewall and AIDS.
Review: Jim Parsons and Zachary Quinto Enter Sniping in ‘The Boys in the Band’
6 / 10
I wish I could report that this charismatic and capable team, directed by the busy Joe Mantello, transported me vividly and uncompromisingly into the dark ages of homosexual life in these United States, and that I shuddered and sobbed in sympathy. But even trimmed from two acts to an intermission-free 110 minutes, the show left me largely impatient and unmoved.
