2. The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Pelkey by James Lecesne - A Staged Reading

One actor, Daniel Guyton, portrays every character in a small Jersey Shore town as he unravels the story of Leonard Pelkey, a tenaciously optimistic and flamboyant fourteen-year-old boy who goes missing. A luminous force of nature whose magic is only truly felt once he is gone, Leonard becomes an unexpected inspiration as the town’s citizens question how they live, who they love, and what they leave behind. Donations received that evening will benefit Lost-n-Found, a nonprofit organization that helps shelter homeless LGBTQ youth.
