- Me directing Dale Merchant at auditions.
- Marvin, a famous playwright of 40 (me) and Kink, a recovering alcoholic getting a career in carpentry together (Jack Wrangler), are roommates, old friends, and never lovers. See Jack’s interview during rehearsals.
- They’ve been caught in the rain and have time to kill before Marvin must catch a plane and Kink hit the bars.
- Tom, 20 (Dale Merchant), the boy-toy of their upstairs neighbor, arrives wet from the rain and asks if he can hang out. In truth (as the roommates know), he’s been wanting to meet the famous Marvin and handsome Kink.
- Kink leaves to give Marvin a chance with the horny boy. Marvin is so nervous that he winds up…
- —just entertaining Tom till Kink gets back.
- Kink returns, and Tom makes a play for him.
- Marvin and Kink put on a show to dispel the sexual tension.
- As a game, Marvin makes Kink and Tom strip so they can see themselves reflected in the TV screen. Tom gets ideas for a threesome, and Marvin and Kink quickly dress and leave.
- My favorite moment, kissing Dale goodbye and flying away.
- Tom, left alone, loses his pants and waits for his lover upstairs to come home.

First publicity photo.

This was the first gay play I ever saw (Portland, 1980?) Later, I read Kennedy’s Children (You were already my hero). Then I moved to LA and I got to meet you. Thank you for casting me and directing me in Beaux Arts Ball. (I was Madame Seurat – Dana Winkelman). I’m sorry I did not have the artistic nor emotional maturity at that time. It was a joy to work with you.
