Delirious musical "Were the World Mine" to close NewFest
NewFest 2008: The 20th Anniversary NY LGBT Film Festival will run from June 5-15th this year. For full coverage visit the website, but if you're going, be sure to show up the final night. The musical Were the World Mine will close the festival, and from the looks of it, it promises to be a feverdream the likes of which have never been seen before:
"If you had a love-potion, who would you make fall madly in love with you? Timothy, prone to escaping his dismal high school reality through dazzling musical daydreams, gets to answer that question in a very real way. After his eccentric teacher casts him as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream, he stumbles upon a recipe hidden within the script to create the play’s magical, purple love-pansy. Armed with the pansy, Timothy’s fading spirit soars as he puckishly imposes a new reality by turning much of his narrow-minded town gay, beginning with the rugby-jock of his dreams. Ensnaring family, friends and enemies in this heart-wrenching chaos, Timothy forces them to walk a mile in his musical shoes. The course of true love never did run smooth, but by the end of this moving musical comedy of errors based on director Tom Gustafson’s prolific award-winning short film, Fairies, the bumpy ride comes to a heartfelt conclusion. With vibrant imagery, a first-rate ensemble cast and innovative music rivaling the best of pop/rock and contemporary Broadway, Were the World Mine attempts to push modern gay cinema and musical film beyond expectation."
Note to self: Must.See.This! You can see a sneak peek of what is sure to be the gayest musical ever made (and that's saying something!) after the break.
