GPS - TWO DEAD CLOWNS
The Ringwald Theatre is proud to announce the 6th installment of its wildly popular Gay Play Series (GPS).
Friday, June 26 will feature a world premiere play reading of Two Dead Clowns by Ronnie Larsen, playwright of Ringwald hits Making Porn and 10 Naked Men. Two Dead Clowns is a 2-part play about the lives of serial killer, John Wayne Gacy Jr. famous John Waters actor, Divine. John Wayne Gacy Jr. was executed after being sentenced to death for killing at least 33 people. He buried many of his victims under his house. He also liked to dress up as a clown and perform for children. He was a very complicated man and the play examines his life as well as the lives of his family members and his victims. Divine was also a killer but only on screen. Most of his fame derived from his starring roles in John Water's films as well as his recording career and nightclub appearances. Two Dead Clowns focuses on the last weekend of his life as he was preparing to shoot an episode of Married With Children in Los Angeles. He was to play Uncle Otto and, unlike most of his roles with John Waters, he would not be performing in drag. He died the night before the taping. Two Dead Clowns will feature Joe Bailey in dual roles of Divine and Gacy.
