Description:

Twentieth-century theater has been a powerful force in bringing gay and lesbian characters and themes out of the closet and into the spotlight. These dramatic selections share themes of oppression and suppression, countered by love, fear, anger, and humor-universally human, not just gay or lesbian. Included are Terrence McNally's The Ritz, Harvey Fierstein's Torch Song Trilogy, Paula Vogel's The Baltimore Waltz, John Herbert's Fortune and Men's Eyes, and more.
