Two Pins For The Price Of One

You can get two TalibanAmarillo pins for the price of one tonight.

After the Avenue 10 theater (red pin - "gay theater") was shut down under suspicious circumstances, the Amarillo Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (green pin, "idol worship") offered use of their church so that Avenue 10 could continue staging Bent.

Bent is a Pulitzer-prize winning play by Martin Sherman about the persecution of gay men in Nazi Germany. The original West End production starred Ian McKellen (Gandalf for you Hobbitses). The Broadway production starred Richard Gere.

Amarillo's production of Bent is directed by Jessica Burton and stars Tommy Toliver as Max, Ronnie Nanos as Horst and Bobby Hallmark as Rudy.

The show will sell out, so be sure to make reservations. Call 444-2637.

Bent
tonight, Jan. 23, Saturday, Jan. 24 and Fri. Jan 30
