Music Theatre & Activism
​


​I produced "Out-TV" for BNN-TV. which consisted mostly
of original gay themed music theater.
Along with other works, those featured below were all presented on BNN-TV:  
Gaynocchio: A queer parody of my
​ballet "Pinocchio" as performed by the Marblehead Ballet with irreverent narrations added later.  Please click on
either donkey to watch GAYNOCCHIO:

SEX MYSTERY:
Off-Nights at The Sometimes Café:

in a mixed bar (gay, lesbian, straight...) emotions rise high as people fall for each other...  but who knows who is whom?  Please click on any of the three performers to watch SEX MYSTERY:

​Phone Sex:  Censored by BNN-TV and moved from 6:30 PM to 1:30 AM.  Shown at Mobius in Boston as part of an exhibit
​of censored works. Fuzzy is getting erotic phone calls from a mystery stranger. Please click on the phone to watch PHONE SEX:

I was on the editoral staff of the original Fag Rag 'Zine under the name Tiresias. 
I drew one of the covers in too intimate personal detail; and published poems
and auto-biographical stories with even more detail. 

I was a trans youth; The Journey deals with transgender issues. I have been a vegetarian for my whole adult life, out of respect for the other creatures on this tiny planet. My symphony Song of War is an anti-war tract; 
Snow-White is concerned with racial violence; and Gay Pride is about LGBT violence.


The Balcony:  Coming "soon" (when I get around to it) arguably the most
​contraversial scene from "The Balcony' my full length opera based on
​"Le Balcon" by Jean Genet.  It and 
Allegory, may go too far!


Being gay myself, many of my works involve same-sex relationships; My operas: Hamlet & Edward II & my ballet symphony Clover Ceres feature gay couples,
My ballet symphony The Great Liberator and The Balcony have prominent lesbian couples. Crazy Dinosaurs has everthing!
