8th Annual Breakthrough Workshop Theatre Presentation & 10th Anniversary of Harvey Milk Day
Written by Patricia Loughrey / Original Music by Thomas Hodges Directed by Terri Bratcher
Extensively researched and beautifully constructed, this documentary-style ensemble play recounts the life and lasting impact of groundbreaking LGBT activist and politician Harvey Milk, as told by the people who knew him best. Spoken word combines with multimedia and music as an ensemble cast moves in and out of the identities of real-world figures whose lives were forever altered by Milk's too-short career. This spirited play reaffirms his impact and the continued relevance of his campaign towards equality, three decades after his assassination.
