The Ritz by Terrence McNally

Come to Opening-Night for a 70s Post-Show Party. There will be a prize for the best outfit.

“The Ritz” is pure, glorious farce. The play is set in a gay bathhouse in New York in the 1970’s, where mistaken identity and confusion over sexuality creates a multiplicity of situational madnesses! A perfectly innocent Italian American is hiding from his incensed, murderous mafia brother-in-law in what he thinks is a Jack LaLanne health club. The population of this particular little corner of New York includes chubby-chasers, go-go dancers, squeaky-voiced detectives, cowboy-chapped cruisers, and a host of other madcap characters… not to mention the fabulous, the wonderful, Googie Gomez—hot from Puerto Rico, and Broadway-bound! Don’t miss it. Mature themes.
