The production was the recipient of the Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Solo Show.

The production, directed by Nic Cory, will benefit Pride Plays and Rattlestick Playwrights Theater’s 25th anniversary. Urie co-produced Pride Plays last year with Doug Nevin, bringing a slate of LGBTQ+-themed shows to Rattlestick over a four-day period in June. The event was so successful, it’s coming back again this year.
