Patti Issues

The Duplex, 61 Christopher St.
Two-time Tony nominee Robin De Jesus stars in this hit solo play by Ben Rimalower. When Rimalower was eight years old, his father came out of the closet and embarked on a drug-fueled tear that left his family in tatters. Amid the chaos of his young life, Ben found comfort -- like so many gay boys before him and after -- in musical theater, and specifically in the transportive voice of Broadway star Patti LuPone. With a mix of comic irreverence, stark candor and show-biz bravado, Patti Issues poignantly explores the challenges facing LGBT parents and children while shining unique light on gay men's time-old obsessions with divas. (Two drink minimum; must be 21+ to attend.) Sun., 9:30. Call or visit website for variations in playing schedule.
