Torch Song Trilogy

Gaiety Theatre Presents Torch Song Trilogy Dates Previews: 1 – 3 February, 2013 Season: 6 February – 3 March, 2013 Times: Tuesday – Saturday at 7pm, Sundays at 5pm The Tony Award-winning TORCH SONG TRILOGY returns to Sydney for Mardi Gras 2013 in a bold new production directed by Stephen Colyer (Kiss of the Spider Woman, Paris Letter, Hello Again). Funny and poignant, Harvey Fierstein’s intensely personal collection of three works chronicles a Jewish New York drag-queen’s quest for love, respect and a life of which he can be proud. From a heartbreaking first attempt at love with a reluctant older man, to a burgeoning relationship with a beautiful young fashion model, Arnold Beckoff’s greatest torment in life remains his turbulent relationship with his mother. Arnold’s chequered search for love, family and acceptance is a universal story that proves some things in life are worth carrying a torch for. Directed by Stephen Colyer With Simon Corfield, Christian Willis, Belinda Wollaston, Thom Jordan and Mathew Verevis
