What
Kicking off our 2017 Season, Horse Head will partner with AFTER (American Foundation for Transgender Excellence and Recognition) to offer a free staged reading of SENSITIVE GUYS by transgender playwright MJ Kaufman.
Artistic Director Jacey Little will direct the reading, in league with HH Dramaturg Leah Short and AFTER founder Veronika Simms.
SENSITIVE GUYS follows two groups of college-age men and women, determined to eradicate sexual violence on their small liberal arts college campus. The Men’s Peer Education group has dedicated themselves to unpacking and exposing male privilege, as these “sensitive guys” and their female counterparts believe that increased self-awareness is an essential first step towards their goal. But when a shocking rumor surfaces, both groups are shaken to their core.
SENSITIVE GUYS features a cast of women and gender nonconforming actors, double cast as male and female characters, who try to understand men who are trying to understand masculinity.
The show begins at 7:30 PM, doors (and the bar) open at 7:00PM and there is a talk back after the reading. Seating is limited and is first-come, first-serve. RSVP and check in by 7:15PM for a reserved seat!
