SODOMY RULES! The Bowers v. Hardwick Trial

Writer: Bill Crouch
Director: Brian Keane
Performer: Bill Crouch

Sodomy Rules! The Bowers v. Hardwick Trial is a solo-performance play based on the events of the infamous Supreme Court Trial which denied privacy rights to the LGBTQ community in 1986. Michael Hardwick, an openly gay man and his partner were arrested in the privacy of their home during sexual intimacy. Through compelling eyewitness testimony, the author re-creates the dramatic events surrounding the trial, while revealing his own struggles to make peace with Michael Hardwick's heartbreaking journey. This work seeks to embrace the values we hold in highest regard: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS will be granted.
