Torch Song

Humor and heart infuse this all too human journey about the families we're born into, the families we choose, and the battles to bring them all home.   

Harvey Fierstein’s hilarious and heart-wrenching, semi-biographical story follows Arnold Beckoff's odyssey to find happiness in New York. All he wants is a husband, a child, and a pair of bunny slippers that fit.  But a visit from his overbearing mother reminds him that he needs one thing more: Respect. This critically acclaimed production of the Tony Award®-winning comedy stars Drama Desk Award winner Michael Urie (Younger, Ugly Betty, Buyer & Cellar) and Academy Award and Tony winner Mercedes Ruehl (The Fisher King, Lost in Yonkers) and is directed by Tony nominee Moises Kaufman (The Laramie Project, I Am My Own Wife). 

AWARDS:

  • Two 2019 Tony Award nominations for Best Revival of a Play and Best Costume Design of a Play
