About The Night Larry Kramer Kissed Me
With this astonishing concert film, audiences who missed the off-Broadway smash can see David Drake in his captivating one-man show. This semi-autobiographical performance piece contains several poignant stories about growing up gay in the ‘90s. From his brilliant opening monologue describing the impact playwright Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart had on him, to his amusing riff on “Why I Go to the Gym”, Drake delivers a fierce, full-bodied, multi-character performance.
