A WORKSHOP PRODUCTION OF A POWERFUL NEW WORK

AND ALL THE DEAD LIE DOWN

BY HARRISON DAVID RIVERS

NOW ONSTAGE THU-SAT AT 8 PM THROUGH JULY 28.

 

And All the Dead Lie Down.  The story of a sero-discordant, interracial gay couple (Foss is HIV+, Alvin is not) dealing with their mixed status relationship, stigmatization, the importance of connection to family (or lack thereof) and their very different backgrounds is brought to a head by an unexpected visit by Foss’ shady, miscreant brother.

 

Following the Thursday performances (July 19 and 26), con-con is hosting post-show panel conversations in partnership with representatives from The LGBT Center of Greater Cleveland, Care Alliance, Recovery Resources, and a POZ identifying community member.

 

IN ADDITION, RECOVERY RESOURCES IS OFFERING FREE HIV TESTING AT THE THEATER ON THURSDAY EVENINGS (JULY 19 & 26) BEFORE THE SHOW, STARTING AT 6 PM.
