Thanks to those who were able to attend our Sochi event about gay athletes on Monday. We had a great turnout, and were thrilled with the actors and directors. Check out this review in Chicago Phoenix.

This email will keep you updated on other events on the Pride Films and Plays horizon for the next few months!

The biggest of those is the Chicago premiere of the musical Songs From An Unmade Bed, a theatrical song cycle with lyrics by Mark Campbell, which starts performances on March 27 at the Apollo Studio Theater (underneath Million Dollar Quartet). It is a fun and exciting show with musical direction by Robert Ollis and direction by Derek Van Barham. Find out more about the show here. Tickets can be purchased here.
