Join the Storytelling (r)Evolution at Actors Theatre of Louisville

First and foremost, the Juneteenth Celebration by UNIVERSES was an experience. I walked in entirely unsure what to expect, and that feeling remained for the duration of the show. The concert was unique in the way that it required you as an audience member to be present and to have faith in the artists in front of you to guide you through their process. I can honestly say that I have never seen anything like it and that I likely won’t again.

Ya'll, there is something going on at Actors Theatre of Louisville. I arrived right after church with my husband for a Sunday afternoon showing of Won't you be my May-bor?, a kid-friendly romp of a play in the Victor Jory Theater (it seems all my favorite Actors plays are performed in the VJ). We sat with two older gay men from our church, not quite sure what to expect. Of this I was certain, though: If the drag performer May O'Nays is involved, my spirit is about to be warmed. And I was correct. For a little over an hour, I sat among people just like me, people not like me at all, and...a relatively new experience for me...CHILDREN.
