Now, I give you a 28 plays by queer playwrights in 28 days reading list.
We have some of my all time favorites like Jen Silverman and Jan Rosenberg. I reread their plays as if the meaning of life is hidden in the text.
I could only choose so many Rachel Lynett and Gina Femia plays. I could make a whole calendar of just their plays. better yet an advent calendar, but it counts down to pride month instead of the holidays!
