When Boys In The Band originally performed in New York in 1968 it tore down barriers. Exposing the raw torment and glorious celebration of issues of religion and sexuality as seen through the lives of seven friends.
It's Harold's birthday, and his closest friends are throwing him a party at Michael's apartment. Among Harold's presents is "Cowboy", an attractive male prostitute, since Harold may have trouble finding a cute young man on his own now that he's getting older. As the party progresses the self-deprecating humor of the group takes a nasty turn as the men become drunker. The play is climaxed by a cruel telephone "game" where each man must call someone and tell him (or her?) of his love for them.
