For the Gay Stage cover

Previous surveys of the gay theatrical repertoire have concentrated on plays produced on Broadway or in London's West End. This comprehensive guide goes well beyond these earlier studies by introducing productions from Off Broadway, from regional theaters in the U.S. and U.K., and from Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Also included are Puerto Rican, Indian and Filipino plays written in English, as well as translations from other languages. Well over half of the works discussed here appear for the first time in such a study.

“a wide-ranging array of plays...recommended”—Booklist; “This catalog of the gay theatrical repertoire is a comprehensive guide to those works that feature one or more homosexual central figures or that make homosexuality the play's primary theme…. the only available and reasonably up-to-date source for readers interested in following the international repertoire…recommended”—Choice.
