Uptown Players presents The Boys in the Band, a transformative exploration of friendship and identity amidst the struggles faced by gay men in the late 1960s. Written by Mart Crowley, the play unfolds in the apartment of Michael, who hosts a birthday party for his friend Harold, leading to emotional revelations among their group of friends. Directed by Dennis Canright, the cast includes Quintin Jones Jr., Caddo Lindsey, Ryan Maffei, and Clayton Younkin. This iconic work invites audiences to reflect on themes of self-acceptance and the quest for genuine connections during a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ history.
