Ghostlight Ensemble asks questions that challenge the status quo
Ghostlight Ensemble is seeking a Stage Manager for its fall production of Angry Fags by Topher Payne.
An out lesbian state senator is up for re-election. Her female opponent is a moderate conservative who has aligned herself with right-wing extremists. They’re locked in a tight race in which each side caters to its base and any event can become instantaneously politicized.
When a gay man is bashed with a baseball bat and left to die, his ex-boyfriend, a campaign aide for the incumbent senator, is enraged. But his boss’s unwillingness to label it a hate crime tips him over the edge. Frustration and fear eventually turn to rage, and he teams up with his best friend to embark on a vendetta of sabotage and more, reasoning that if gays aren’t respected enough to win justice, fear will achieve what good intentions and politics cannot.
The Stage Manager will attend all rehearsals and performances. Rehearsals in September/October 2025. In general, expect three to four rehearsals per week on weeknights or weekend days, to be scheduled according to cast availability.
Production Schedule:
- Rehearsals in September and October 2025 on weeknights and/or weekend days
