Ben Rimalower’s Patti Issues will mark the artist’s debut as a playwright and performer. Directed by Aaron Mark, the production will run from August 30 to October 4 on Thursdays at 9:30pm. Performances will be held at The Duplex.
When Rimalower was eight years old, his father came out of the closet and embarked on a drug-fueled tear that left his family in tatters. Amid the chaos of his young life, Ben found comfort–like so many gay boys before him and after–in musical theater, and specifically in the transportive voice of Broadway star Patti LuPone.
