Discover the secrets behind the sequins in this pivotal chapter of LGBTQ+ history. Come on up! Welcome to the Howdy Pardner Drive-In, Boise, Idaho, USA. Each night, Al Travelstead puts on a floor show on the roof! But tonight will be a little different. Tonight Al tells the story he doesnt want to tell. The story of what happened back in 1955 when moral panic swept through the community. When fear and suspicion over hidden lives sent this town into a tailspin. Will Al's Show on the Roof reveal the truth behind the tunes? The secrets beneath the sequins? Well youll just have to find out for yourself This joyful new musical by Tom Ford and Alex Syiek, directed by Rory Pelsue, shines a light on a pivotal yet overlooked chapter of LGBTQ+ history. The Show on the Roof is a poignant reminder of how far weve come since 1955, and how much further we still have to go. Come on up!
