This play is part of Cornerstone Theatre's Faith-Based Theater Cycle, a four-and-a-half-year series of projects exploring the question: How does faith unite and divide us?

It is a theatrical celebration and examination of a lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender interfaith community, examining the complex and dynamic relationship between faith and identity. The story is told in a vignette, modern-vaudeville-style, at once a choral assemblage and a presentation of monologues and scenes that chronicle a community in search of its authenticity.

The play was created by the playwright and 19 participants whose life stories form the basis for this multi-disciplined theatre piece.

REVIEWS:

"Playwright Luis Alfaro explores the dimensions of spiritual diversity in his poignant, evocative dramatization of stories from the gay and lesbian community... Alfaro approaches the subject of faith with a humility and jocular skepticism that is clearly born of struggle, both personally and for the gay and lesbian community as a whole."
