Synopsis
At the height of what TIME magazine dubbed "AIDS hysteria" in 1983, college student David invites his boyfriend home to his parents' house in Maryland where nothing has changed since the 1800s—including the slave quarters. Confronting hypocrisy and oppression with exhilarating wit, Bradshaw's incendiary work is "likely to leave you speechless!" (New York Times) "An avant-garde exploration of racism, homophobia and religion." (Chicago Now) "Clearly attacking the homophobia in the African-American community while exclaiming that deep-seated prejudices remain unconsciously latent in all of us, Bradshaw has created an entertainment—and, make no mistake, this is an entertaining work—that views theatre as a forum for goading audiences out of complacency, refusing to provide the pat but satisfying ending where everyone learns to be nice to each other." (Variety)
