David & Jonathan is still available to play for free! It’s a trans and queer coming of age story set in Texas and, yes, it’s also theatre.

Many thanks to @superfamoustia.bsky.social and From Home Fest for paying me to continue hosting it this year 💙

Play my game slash theatre script - it’s free, in browser, and features queer and trans characters growing up and falling for each other

www.tristanbwillis.com/dandj
Screenshot of a website. Four paintings/sketches in gilded frames hang over a white background. Title text reads “David & Jonathan.” Alongside each painting or sketch is an Act number, like a play. Screenshot of a website. A 90s Windows pop up with the text “Scene 4.” Below it is a monologue: JONATHAN Do you remember kicking Chad in elementary? He kept kicking my shins under the cafeteria table, every lunch. I’d go back to class with dirt and scrapes. I never kicked back. Chad was so small back then. Honestly just a fly to a kid my size. But you were tiny too and full of fury at the injustice of it. Maybe as angry as when you argued with Mrs. Thompson. Just madder than a hornet. You’d try to brush off the dirt and end up smacking my scrapes as you ranted, like there was so much feeling in you it would burst out. And you’ve always been convinced you’re right. About everything. So when I wouldn’t kick back, you kicked him for me. That was when Chad started picking on you instead. And then he got his growth spurt. Screenshot of a website. A Momoyama or Edo period painted screen with kimono draped over stands. Four small image pieces are below it, along with a magnifying glass and a provenance card. Screenshot of a website. A Windows 10 era folder window hovers over a picture. The title says Scene 3. Below it is the beginning of a scene: (JONATHAN and DAVID meet outside of a church. JONATHAN carries a large casserole dish covered in aluminum foil.) JONATHAN You’re here. DAVID Yeah. It’s me, real, flesh, not a ghost. JONATHAN In a suit. One that fits you. DAVID I have a couple now. I uh I’m sorry I missed the ceremony.

I am editing a literary magazine with my sister. You should submit to it if you're cool and you have something weird that no one wants.
