The recent Off-Broadway success about the gay-rights pioneer, Harry Hay.  In the early 1950's a courageous group of men, lead by Hay, found the first gay rights organization in the United States.  This is their story as they struggle for acceptance almost 20 years before the Stonewall Riots of 1969 turned their dream into a reality.



The comedy is elegant and full of depth, territory on which theatre thrives: Fantasy, witchcraft that transcends place and time.  A father has consulted a magician about his estranged son and the magician shows him scenes from his son's life. 



This is Mr. McDonagh's first American-set play.  The "outrageously funny" world premiere production starred the Tony-nominated Christopher Walken, on Broadway.  The plot revolves around Carmichael, who has been searching for his missing left hand for almost half a century.  Add two bickering lovebirds with a hand to sell and a hotel clerk with an aversion to gunfire, and the stage is set for a hilarious rollercoaster of love, hate, desperation and hope. 


All production are scheduled to be performed in the
