Description
A celebration of lives lost to AIDS told in free-verse monologues with a blues jazz and rock score this piece is designed to include the community in a theatrical response to the AIDS crisis. It is often performed as a benefit for fund-raising and consciousness-raising. It was presented to critical acclaim in London at the the King's Head Theatre in 1992 and the following year at the Criterion Theatre.
