“Crystal Christian” is an exciting new play with music that examines the million-dollar therapy industry of the so-called ex-gay ministries. The play itself attempts to tackle the misuse of the word unnatural in regards to sexual diversity, as well as indict the questionable methods of the ex-gay ministries’ ‘reparative therapy’. The play finds hypocrisy swarming inside the evangelical pageant, where shame is a virus. It would be hysterical if it weren’t so horrifying.

The Magic Theatre has offered to host First Sprout Theatre for a week-long workshop in mid-August that will culminate in three shows over the weekend of August 15-17, 2008 at the Magic Theatre Northside Space, Fort Mason Center, Building D.

August 15th - 8pm
August 16th - 8pm
August 17th - 2:30 pm

Tickets are ten dollars, cash only at the door of the Magic Theatre’s Northside Space. Every show is two for the price of one. Please email: firstsprout@gmail.com, to reserve seats for any of the three performances.

Ex-gay survivor and performance artist Peterson Toscano writes about the upcoming final performance of his one-man show, “Doin’ Time in the Homo No Mo Halfway House.”

The play, based on his experiences in Exodus’ ex-gay live-in program “Love In Action,” will be performed Friday, April 25, at the Tusten Theatre in Narrowsburg, N.Y.
