Secret Boulevard October 5, 2010

Secret Boulevard is a brand new play telling the tale of a scandalous gay love affair between two male movie starts in 1940s Hollywood.

Hollywood 1949. In an era of stifling movie production restraints and stars kept under oppressive control by their bosses, innocent young actor Patrick Glass feels the full force of the studios’ brute career-destroying power when he embarks on a scandalous love affair with his famous male co-star – the brooding and enigmatic Hollywood heart-throb Jackson Harper…

As the Hollywood powers-that-be and the prevailing social morality clamp down on this unacceptable romance and decide to tear it apart, the ramifications will still be felt forty years later in 1989…
