  1. Play About Gay Mormon Henry Stuart Matis
    • NY, NY.
    • 8:00pm

    On February 25, 2000, a young gay Mormon named Henry Stuart Matis drove to the Mormon Ward House in Los Altos, California, placed a gun to his head and ended his life. This provocative drama is based on the actual events of his life in which he faced a tragic, false dilemma; either one is gay or one is Christian. Trapped between his same sex attraction and the power of his LDS faith, Henry made the ultimate sacrifice, removing the chains of his mortality. At the TBG Theatre, 312 West 36th St. Tickets: $18.
