Island City’s Satirical Musical Altar Boyz Is A Grin-Fest Hoot
Franklin Graham, the homophobic alt-right son of Billy Graham, just finished a revival tour of Florida this weekend. Too bad he didn’t attend the revival of the musical Altar Boyz at Island City Stage that energetically, if gently, teases boy bands and evangelistic Christian pop rock by infusing a decidedly gay undercurrent.

Slow Burn’s Immersive Tarzan Is High-Flying Welcome To Jungle

Yes, it’s just that good.
Slow Burn’s Heathers Sings To The Teenage Misfit In Us All
