When the Bishop Bilodeau arrives at a Canadian prison to hear the last confession of a childhood friend, he instead finds himself compelled to confront a past magically revived as the prison inmates bring to life a tragic narrative of passion among three boys at a small Christian school in 1912. Lust and love collide when two men confront their own conflicting memories in a final effort to reclaim lost lives and achieve both redemption and revenge.

Everyone loves Bert Brecht. His wife loves him. His mistress loves him. His second, third, and fourth mistresses love him, too. His childhood best friend loves him. The cabarets love him. The Communists love him. The shadows love him. The limelight loves him. And now history loves him, too. But might we wonder: what is history, after all? And to whom does it belong?

One January night, six women locked an audience inside of an empty Boston theatre, turned on the lights, and took over the world through the heretofore unknown gender-queering power of vaudeville. When the debris had cleared, “The Girlie Show” was born.

In April 1895 Oscar Wilde brought a libel suit against the Marquess of Queensberry, the father of his youthful lover, who had publicly maligned him as a sodomite. In doing so, England’s reigning man of letters set in motion a series of events that would culminate in his ruin and imprisonment. For within a year the bewildered Wilde himself was on trial for acts of “gross indecency” and – implicitly – for a vision of art that outraged Victorian propriety.
