AN EPIC NEW BROADWAY PLAY ON MORN GAY LIFE ASKS: N WE LOVE OURSELV?

Jt bee pri weekend is past don’t mean the celebratns of gay, lbian, bisexual and transgenr people on and off Broadway are over. * gay plays on broadway *

The first phas of the gay play, ccial their moment, which broadly speakg enpassed the send half of the 20th century, are over. Some, like “A Strange Loop” and “Fat Ham,” dramatize how the experience of racism amplifi that of homophobia, and vice versa.Others fy expectatns by makg sexual orientatn a distctly sendary ncern among characters who “happen to be” gay or lbian, as “A Case for the Existence of God” and “At the Weddg.” In another pair, “I’m Revoltg” and “You Will Get Sick,” that ncern isn’t even sendary, but tertiary to the pot of near visibily.

When a (male) love tert enters the picture, and they sg Katy Perry’s “I Kissed a Girl” as a duet, you feel somethg new has happened, as ntroversy melts to a blissful cloud of nonbary bubble gum.This is the equalizg, homogenizg fluence of pop culture at work — an fluence that some queer people unrstandably mistst. Jackson’s “A Strange Loop” go further, makg the cross-pollatn of inty the prime source of s nflict, as the ma character nonts both the homophobia of his Black fay and the racism of his queer one.

(One of the songs is lled “Exile Gayville.”) The productn, which closed Sunday, even built tersectnaly to a marketg tagle, llg self “the big, Black, and queer-ass Great Amerin Mil for all.”ImageBlack masculy is among the them ursg through Jam Ijam’s “Fat Ham,” which ran at the Public Theater last sprg.
