The Well of Horniness

Holly Hughes' "dyke noir" classic. The first Philadelphia performance in over a decade of this screamingly funny romp, in which our "lady dick" sets out to solve a murder with way too many suspects: is it the about-to-be-married lady who's discovering/re-discovering the joys of women? The hard-bitten hat check girl? The sleazy lounge performer? Solutions take second place to laughs.

The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later

Tectonic Theatre Project's follow-up to their powerful docu-drama about the Matthew Shepard murders. Returning to Laramie, Wyoming ten years after the murders, they interview a wide variety of people (including the murderers). Bold, must-see theater.

The Crumple Zone

It's Christmas weekend on Staten Island, and our three gay roommates are having some problems. Terry drinks way too much, and can't get an acting job or a date. Alex is carrying on with Buck while Alex's lover Matt is on tour. As surprise visitors appear, the laughs multiply in Buddy Thomas' dark comedy of gay life and relationships.

"The kind of domestic comedy that might have been written by Neil Simon if he were gay and 40 years younger" (New York Times).

Mike and Seth

Two lifelong friends--one straight, one gay--share a hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton the night before Mike (the straight one) is getting married, while a Texas ice storm rages outside. A haunting, funny, sexy, and lyrical play full of longing, sadness, humor, hope, and beauty. Quince is proud to present this world premiere by one of our most important contemporary writers.

"Daniel Talbott, whose talent just seems to keep on growing." (NYTheatre.com)
