Party, a group of seven gay friends get together for a kiki in mid-1990s Manhattan. The evening is full of campy
comebacks, Broadway references, and naughty party games. As the evening
progresses, the guys start to play a version of "Truth or Dare" in
which they must answer intimate questions and act out sexual fantasies, all
the while shedding an article of clothing with each round until they all end
up naked. The dialog is hilarious but also turns poignant as it touches
gently on darker themes, including a painful coming out, unrequited love, and
the loss of friends in the AIDS epidemic unfolding around them. Party is an exercise in group affirmation
fitted to a 'Friends'-like structure. And the continual waves of laughter and
applause that greet its on-stage antics are proof of its success. — Bay
Windows, Boston …
non-stop laughs from beginning to end ... a new vision of gays that is
life-affirming and unapologetic. Besides being warm and witty, with a
wonderful celebration of life quality to it, Party is
absolutely hysterical. — Chicago River North News
