The Olivier Award-nominated play “My Son’s A Queer (But What Can You Do)” will hold industry presentations in New York on May 23 and 24. 

The one-person show stars writer and performer Rob Madge in a coming-of-age story as they navigate their identity as a queer person with the support of their family.

Did anyone else receive the invitation to enter the lottery for these presentations "in advance of a New York premiere"?

Really enjoyed this show in London.  Not sure it can fill many Broadway houses for very long given its challenged to sell well after it transferred to a larger space in London.  But a small theater or an off-Broadway space would suit it well.

I absolutely want to see this on the Broadway stage. Maybe in a smaller house like the Hayes or the Golden? I could totally see this run for a strictly limited run. 

The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

Marjorie S. Deane Little Theater. I really wish they had just done this as a first-come, first-served, instead of an unnecessary lottery.

Of course I didn't win for the one performance I could make, but if anyone who did has an extra for the 11 a.m. on Wednesday, please let me know.
