This group of playwrights has two Pulitzer Prizes, four Obies, one Emmy, and three Tony nominations.

The plays star Craig Bierko, Mark Consuelos, Polly Draper, Beth Leavel, Richard Thomas, and Harriet Harris.
A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to Freedom to Marry and other organizations promoting marriage equality. I'm very excited to give away a pair of tickets to a show that supports this important cause. To be entered to win, write a comment on this post about why you want to see the show (a description of each play can be found here). For an extra entry, tweet about the contest or retweet one of my tweets about it (only one tweet or retweet will count for an extra entry). The winner will be chosen at random on Friday, October 28 at 5 p.m. Please include your e-mail address or Twitter handle in the comments so I have a way to contact you if you win. Good luck!

This is a salient topic where art can influence politics...
This looks like an interesting show and I'm always looking to gauge my weight gain by seeing which theater's seats I can still fit into.
Also, Beth Leavel and Richard Thomas are in it, and I'm a fan of both.
I didn't even know what this play was about until I read your post. Now I'm kind of dying to know what Neil LaBute has to say about gay marriage.

Should be interesting with those list of writers and actors! Very curious, especially right in the middle of gay marriage finally slowly being approved one state at a time.
Important topic. Curious how this work turns out!
