Pure Glitter

Pure Glitter, a dazzling new play by Douglas Lyons is a love letter to the chaotic, shimmering world of chosen family and the queer experience. Set in the vibrant chaos of Stan and Tony’s 10th anniversary surprise party, this comedy dives into the lives of six unforgettable gay men—each with their own flair, flaws, and fabulousness. Stan, the curator in crisis, hosts a night meant to celebrate love, but the arrival of flamboyant Rance, nervous Blair, chill Dwight, wise-beyond-his-years Niko, and mediator Tony sparks a cascade of unexpected drama.

Perfect for theatergoers who adore witty banter, heartfelt moments, and the sparkle of queer camaraderie, this play captures the magic of friendship as the ultimate lifeline. When life’s vase shatters, these “complicated, turtleneck-judging, bitchy, musical theater gays” prove that even in the messiest moments, love and laughter create a mosaic of pure glitter. Join them for a night of chaos, connection, and a reminder that no one survives alone—especially not with friends like these.
