Ghostlight Ensemble asks questions that challenge the status quo
Ghostlight Ensemble is seeking a Fight & Intimacy Choreographer for its fall production of Angry Fags by Topher Payne.
Play Summary
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.
Fight & Intimacy Choreographer will be responsible for choreographing a brief moment of intimacy and multiple scenes of stage violence including the use of a stage firearm.
