Choir Boy – Musical Play – ACT Theatre

“Choir Boy” musical play at ACT Theatre w/ the 5th Avenue Theatre. Tight accapella harmonies like TAKE 6 or Boyz II Men. The flamboyant gay student’s comebacks were so witty. Loved the shower set design. Wondering what the ending dramatic pause symbolized. #LGBT #boardingSchool #POC #prepSchool #black #theatre
