OUT/PLAY Queer Play Reading Series: The Lisbon Traviata
OUT/PLAY: Queer Play Reading Series is proud to kickstart their 2nd season with Terrence McNally’s The Lisbon Traviata on Friday October 11 at 7:00pm at TheaterLab (357 W 36th St 4th Floor, New York, NY 10018).
What’s it about? In The Lisbon Traviata (debut: June 1985), Terrence McNally weaves a vibrant tale of love and passion between two fabulous gay men: a flamboyant opera aficionado and his more-grounded partner. Set against a rare performance of the opera La Traviata, the play explores their emotional highs and lows with sharp wit and heartfelt revelations. Celebrating the beauty of opera, McNally boldly examines the complexities of queer love and the art that connects us.
Who’s reading? Directed by Michael J. Byrne; with David J. Baldwin as Stephen, Andrew Holder as Mendy, Benjamín Cardona as Mike, and Spencer Gonzalez as Paul
