This Gulf Coast Revival will be directed by Dave Thomas and open April 22nd.

TORCH SONG TRILOGY is a land mark theatre piece in Broadway history having won a Tony award for it's author and star, Harvey Fierstein and set the standard for accepting and viewing an alternative life style on the Broadway stage and later on film where the author and star recreated the role on the big screen.

TORCH SONG TRILOGY is the funny and poignant trilogy of an aging drag queen's hilarious attempts to find domestic bliss with everyone from a school teacher (Joseph Alan Johnson) to a tolerant young male model (Chuck McTague). The greatest challenge for Arnold (Larry Buzzeo) in this adaptation of Harvey Fierstein's Broadway play is his complicated relationship with his mother (Brick). Also cast in Gypsy Productions Gay Classic is Joleen Wilkinson as Lady Blue/Laurel & Christian Maier as David.
