StoryFest 2023 presents: A Staged Reading of Gentle Hacksaw

StoryFest 2023 presents: A Staged Reading of Gentle Hacksaw

From Eric LaRocca, the award-winning author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke, comes a startling new drama of religion, identity, and violence.

Two high-profile gay men become embroiled in a verbal cat-and-mouse game of utter cruelty when an unpleasant bargain goes awry. As social graces are discarded and basic human decency is abandoned, both men discover shocking truths about themselves and one another that will forever transform them.

Join us the Saturday evening of StoryFest for an exclusive staged reading of Gentle Hacksaw!

The performance starts at 8pm, followed by a talk-back with the playwright and cast moderated by NYT best-selling author, Clay Mcleod Chapman.

Doors open at 7pm for a reception, where guests can mix + mingle with StoryFest authors while enjoying small bites and a cash bar.
