controversial and talked about play of the 1998 theatrical season begins: "We
are going to tell you an old and familiar story." But from that point on,
nothing feels quite familiar again. What follows is a story that parallels the
New Testament's. Joshua, a young man born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas,
in the early 1950s is different from the other boys because he is homosexual.
Joshua grows up in isolation and torment, an object of scorn. He flees Corpus
Christi in search of a more accepting environment, gathering along the way a
group of friends who are bound to him by his message of love and tolerance.
Joshua delivers and lives by his message, and officiates at a gay marriage
ceremony, but, inevitably, his radical teachings will not deliver him from his
fate. Returning to Corpus Christi, he is betrayed by his friend and lover,
Judas, and crucified in front of the jeering throngs who hated him as a boy, and
still do. His plea, that we look upon all souls as equal in the sight of God,
falls unattended.<BR></EM><BR><EM><STRONG>Corpus Christi</STRONG></EM> is
