Comment this post for a chance to win. Winner will be selected at random on Monday, March 26. *
Steven Fales (top left) could have been the poster child for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church): Eagle Scout, international missionary, BYU graduate, married in the Salt Lake Temple, and father of a beautiful boy and girl. In his autobiographical one-man play, Fales tells the captivating story of his failed attempt to overcome his "same-sex attraction" through "reparative therapy," which resulted in his divorce and excommunication from the Mormon Church.
After his perfect Mormon world fell apart, Fales took his pain and confusion to New York City where he quickly descended into the gay underworld of escorting and drugs. Both touching and funny, Mormon Boy is a 90-minute reclamation saga of a Latter-day prodigal son that ends in a moment of self-revelation that "hits us between the eyes like a shot with a two-by-four" (Chicago Sun Times).
The very personal play shows the
link between spiritual abuse and addiction. Fales defines spiritual
abuse as any time an individual, group, or institution uses religion to
justify telling or showing anyone they are not worthy of god’s full love
and blessings. Mormon Boy also illustrates the dilemma of those
struggling to reconcile their dreams of becoming straight with the
realities of being gay and what it costs to accept or deny that truth
when children are involved.
