Harriet Harris, Rachel Harris, John Benjamin Hickey, John Michael Higgins, Kathy Najimy, Romy Rosemont and Stephen Root will perform in Standing on Ceremony: The Gay Marriage Plays at Largo at the Coronet on Monday, February 7 at 8pm. The performance will benefit the American Foundation for Equal Rights (AFER) and Equality California.

The program is comprised of short plays that look at the institution of marriage and relationships, written by Jenny Lyn Bader, Jordan Harrison, Jeffrey Hatcher, Moisés Kaufman, Neil LaBute, Wendy MacLeod, Kathy Najimy, José Rivera, Paul Rudnick, and Doug Wright. Conceived and directed by Brian Shnipper, these new provocative plays were created in response to the on-going battle for marriage equality throughout the United States.

Complimentary tickets will be available to members of the military in celebration of the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.” Ticket requests must be submitted by email at standingonceremony.net and a military identification card is required at the box office to verify military service.
