Take an ordinary, screwed-up family--okay, maybe not so ordinary but definitely screwed up--and allow them to be honest with each other for the first time, and you have a powerful evening of love, American style. A mother researches every nuance of gay life (from sex toys to Matthew Shepard) in order to understand her son, a sister becomes Bjork to deal with abuse-trauma, a daughter/mother/lap-dancer finally finds herself, a brother falls in love despite his tortured past. Every member of this extended family steals your heart as they daringly begin to recognize their own. Dark, funny, and searingly insightful, playwright Erik Patterson is on the road to great renown.
-- Flavorpill.net, Lee Bradley
A gay clown. Two lesbian strippers. A pregnant Goth teen. A deadbeat dad. A horny mother. And a girl who thinks she's Bjork. In this stand-alone sequel to Yellow Flesh / Alabaster Rose, the Silverstein family journey towards healing is abruptly halted when Elliot becomes the victim of a brutal gay bashing.
