'100 Years of Queer Theater'

sfgate.com: "This year's festival, the seventh annual foray of short works by the Eastenders Repertory Company, arrives with uncannily apt timing. Even as 'Milk,' a high-profile Hollywood film that chronicles San Francisco's 1970s gay-rights movement, arrives in theaters this month, this week's passage of Proposition 8, which bans same-sex marriage in California, provides a high-contrast punctuation mark. Gay history suddenly seems to matter more than ever, albeit in confounding ways."

I don't think that any political move has depressed me more than Prop 8. I am really excited to see what happens with it, and hope the theatre world can play an even more active part in getting rid of it.
