Hi. I saw the 2nd preview performance of this show yesterday. Curious to hear your thoughts, if anyone has seen or is planning to see it. I personally highly recommend it. It's running a little long right now, and can probably use some heavy editing. But it was exhilarating watching so much of what I feel as millennial gay man, caught in middle of two generations which have gone through so much change in societal acceptance. Me and my partner were very surprised and taken aback about how many of the exact thoughts that the lead shared about what marriage means to him had gone through our heads during our 11 year relationship. It was lovely!
