	_The Pride 
_is a collage portrait of two parallel love stories, in 1958 and 2008,
between two different couples, both named Phillip and Oliver.  In
1958 Phillip, who is married to Sylvia, has an illicit affair with
Oliver, which would have been considered a criminal offense if it were
ever discovered. In 2008 a different Phillip and Oliver have the
freedom to conduct their relationship in the open. But do they
appreciate the freedom to be who they are - or even know what to do
with that freedom?  One play. Two stories. Three characters
interweaving in time. 

	 

	_The Pride 
_is directed by convergence-continuum’s Jonathan Wilhelm and
features con-con actors David Munnell, Brian Westerley, Amy Bistok and
Beau Reinker.
