“Homos makes its audience fall in love with it, and it will break your heart, make you laugh and even make you think.”
“The crew at Convergence-Continuum and Director Clyde Simon clearly understand the purpose of a play like Homos and have given it a stellar treatment, taking its concept and immersing its audience ...”
“Productions such as this hinge on incredible performances to keep the audience’s attention, and they may have found the two most capable people to carry this particular story.”
“Convergence-Continuum welcomes those lured by its inane humor to take that trip, and come out the other side with an important message about acceptance and optimism for the future of human rights and equality.” (Roman Macharoni, Scene)

Homos, or Everyone in America is told through interweaving glimpses, jumping around among moments over a five year period in the relationship of a contemporary couple. What does it mean to be in a committed relationship? Is monogamy just monotony? If navigating this isn’t complicated enough, what can happen when, on top of everything else, the couple is unexpectedly confronted by a vicious hate crime? Homos is a fearless, often funny, openly emotional examination of the moments that can bring two people together – or pull them apart.
Homos is directed by convergence-continuum’s Artistic Director, Clyde Simon. Members of the cast are Nate Homolka, Kieron Cindric, Corey East and Rocky Encalada.
