New York City
‘Accept “Except” LGBT NY’ is about the struggle for justice in America from slavery to modern day Gay Rights. It tells the story of two gay twenty year olds running from the Law, a male from the plantation era (18th Century) and a female from the penitentiary era (21st Century). The play is based on the 13th Amendment of the United States Constitution, which states “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.”
