Torch Song will officially open October 19 in the Tony Kiser Theater. As previously announced, Fierstein has provided newly edited text for the 35th anniversary production.
Rounding out the cast are Jack DiFalco (Marvin’s Room), Ward Horton (Pure Genius), Roxanna Hope Radja (Frost/Nixon), and Michael Rosen (On the Town).
Partially inspired by Sophocles' Antigone, the show is an intimate exploration of love that goes beyond faith between a queer Pakistani-American man and his deeply devout mother.
