Spotlight Comunicaciones’ Gay: Accept Me If You Love Me to Play DCJCC in July

The Peru-based Spotlight Comunicaciones will bring its production of Gay: Accept Me If You Love Me or Gay, Que Me Acepten Los Que Me Quieren, to the Washington DC Jewish Community Center (DCJCC), July 21 -31. Gino Tassara will direct.

The play centers on Franklin Gibson, a Republican Senator and father-of-three, re-married to Paula, a cold and calculating former model who lusts only for money and luxuries. Attempting to protect his family and his career, Franklin hides a secret: his lover, Ivan. When violence erupts, it comes from an unexpected direction and has an unexpected victim. Meanwhile, Franklin’s older children and their friends experience the collision of straight and gay culture in a night-life of sex, drugs, conflict, and discovery.

The cast of 22 actors will be led by Hans Bachman, Ben Horen, and Peruvian Top Model Edith Tapia.

The production is choreographed by Alvaro Palau with fight direction by John Milosich, costumes by Osbel Zumaeta, make-up by Solmakeart and Lorena Arellano, and a multi-tiered set by D7 Partners.
