HIT THE WALL offers a poignant and powerful exploration of the 1969 Stonewall riots. The play's recurring phrase, "I was there," lends a sacred weight to the narrative, while the refrain, "The reports of what happened next are not exactly clear," underscores the complexity and ambiguity of this pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ history.
The reading will be directed by PrideArts Artistic Associates Jordan Ratliff and Magdiel Carmona, and will feature a talented cast including Jared Brown, Heather Abbott, Daniel Suarez Velez, Destin Teamer, Carl Herzog, Haven Denson, Elijah Warfield, Kyle Johnson, Joey Alvey, and Zoe Replinger. Stage directions will be read by Emma Louise Anderson.
Don't miss the special reading of Ike Holter’s HIT THE WALL at Pride Arts Center. Presented by directors Jordan Ratliff and Magdiel Carmona on October 21 and 22.
The season will open with the Chicago premiere of the hilarious romantic musical GAY CARD, return to the British tradition of holiday pantomimes with Tom Whalley's very adult SLEEPING WITH BEAUTY, and close with Joe Calarco's all-male present-day re-imagining of ROMEO AND JULIET, SHAKESPEARE'S R & J.
Casting has been announced for PrideArts’ first production of 2023 - the Chicago premiere of one in two by Donja R. Love.
