Standing on Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays

By Various

Directed by Jennifer Uphoff Gray, C. Michael Wright, Frank Honts

Forward Theater Company will present a staged reading of "Standing on Ceremony," an evening of new short plays focusing on marriage equality and the moments before, during, and after saying “I do.” The event, which will be held Sunday, April 22nd at 7:00pm in the Playhouse at Overture, is a fundraiser for the Fair Wisconsin Education Fund, an LGBT advocacy group. Tickets (available for a suggested donation of $20 apiece) may be purchased at fairwisconsin.com.

Conceived by Brian Shnipper, "Standing On Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays" began as a series of benefit events in Los Angeles, then moved to Off-Broadway. Witty, warm, and occasionally wacky, the plays celebrate equality, the universal challenges of relationships, and the often hilarious power of love.
