WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
An inspiring true story told through humor, song, and the Book of Mormon, Steven Fales' critically acclaimed solo play Confessions of a Mormon Boy explores one young man's captivating journey through excommunication, divorce, prostitution, and drugs, as he struggles to reclaim himself, his children, and his "Donny Osmond" smile. Prior to its current Off-Broadway incarnation, it started as a stand-up comedy routine in Manhattan. The full play first premiered to sold-out crowds in Salt Lake City in 2001. The show is directed by Tony Award winner Jack Hofsiss (The Elephant Man).
There are Monday Night Talk-Backs immediately following the performance.

"Church was my life," says Steven Fales, the writer/performer of Confessions of a Mormon Boy. In his autobiographical solo show, Fales focuses primarily on his struggle to reconcile his gay sexuality with his upbringing in the Mormon faith. He chronicles his mission work in Portugal, his attempt to extinguish his gay desires through therapy, his failed marriage, his excommunication, his stint as a gay sex worker, and his eventual journey toward self-acceptance. The show had a successful run at the 2004 New York International Fringe Festival, garnering a Fringe Excellence Award for solo performance. Unfortunately, it doesn't hold up very well on a second viewing.
