Directing this show has been a blast. Amy's work is incredible. Tonight's our final run-through before tech, and we hope to see you starting Thursday the 4th!

All tickets are Choose What You Pay. December 4-20.

Kevenn pre-ordered me a Mafex Superboy for my birthday last year. He finally arrived yesterday after many delays. Nightwing's delighted.

I got to see a restoration of one of my favorite films at @reelingfilmfest.bsky.social last night. More beautiful, erotic, and enticing than ever. The world James Bidgood created is gay heaven and so inspiring. Hoping for a physical release soon.
