David’s Friend is the story of a crazy friendship in 1980's New York City—a restless city during a reckless time. It’s a comic odyssey about cruising, disco, drag queens, strippers, sex, love, loss and AIDS, told with music, videos, costumes, characters, tall tales and torrid truths.
Written and performed by Nora Burns with direction by Adam Pivirotto featuring Ricky Roman, this fast-paced show is a multi-media celebration of friendship, fun, freaks, fag hags, youthful passion, changing times, emotions, memories, Manhattan and music that moves your feet to a disco beat.
David's Friend runs in repertory at SoHo Playhouse with Nora Burns' The Village! A Disco Daydream.
