Walk Like A Man - The Play
Thanks to numerous requests from its home-based audience, Indigo Blue West Entertainment Group and Positive Scribe Productions will once again bring the historical Off-Broadway production, Walk Like A Man - The Play, to 800 Forrest Street, Atlanta, GA, for a matinee performance, Saturday, April 2, 2011 at 3:00 p.m.!!!
Doors will open at 2:00 p.m. Ticket holders are invited to a wine and cheese pre-show reception. A cash bar will be available. Seating begins at 1:45 p.m.
Told in two-acts by a culturally-diverse cast, what began as a self-published idea evolved into the first African-American lesbian play to be performed Off-Broadway. Boasting the slogan, "It's about life...not lifestyles", this edge of your seat production incorporates dramatic and comedic performances to educate through entertainment as a crew of visually enticing actresses portray and address labels, issues, and stereotypes universal to every type of relationship. From runaway youth, love and religious controversies to domestic violence, HIV/AIDS, safe-sex messages, and affairs in the workplace, these topics and more are presented in a thought-provoking manner.
From patrons who have seen it, the responses have been rave. "This production is so powerful that the quiet is loud." "You'll laugh; you'll cry; you'll leave enlightened. Laurinda gets you." "The actors are professional, realistic, and just plain wonderful!"
Adapted from Walk Like A Man, Brown's 2006 Lambda Literary Award winning book of short stories, Walk Like A Man - The Play has been heralded as a "must see" by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), and has garnered the support of New York Times best-selling author, Zane, the National Black Justice Coalition, as well as Darlene Nipper, Director of the Washington, DC Mayor's Office for LGBT Affairs.
