A theatrical review. By a respected theatrical reviewer.
For reals.
The show? "Abraham Lincoln's Big Gay Dance Party"
The reviewer says: "After seeing ''Abraham Lincoln,'' to quote another President, I cannot tell a lie: For me, it didn't live up to the hype. Maybe it was, in part, due to the kooky misleading title, which led me to believe it would be an outrageous musical romp. In reality, it's a straight play (with campy moments) about a teacher who puts on a school pageant about our 16th president and gets in trouble for including the character of Joshua Speed, a man Lincoln reportedly shared a bed with"
DO YOU GET IT? A "STRAIGHT"-PLAY! ABOUT THE HOT-HOT-MAN-ON-MAN RELATIONSHIP OF LINCOLN AND JOSH SPEED! AND IT'S A MUSICAL! GET IT?
I've got VIP tickets to opening night. I've got foursome with Doris-Kerns Goodwin, Lee Roy Reams, and Sarah Vowel. And if there is a man out there that understands the irony of that combination, please find me.
