The Boys in the Band: 40th Anniversary Edition

"Boys can still hold its own . . . [Mart] Crowley's point is about how the humor is shaped and defined by the pain."-The New York Times

Alyson is proud to release a special fortieth anniversary edition of the play, which includes an original preface by acclaimed writer Tony Kushner (Angels in America), along with previously unpublished photographs of Mart Crowley and the cast of the play/film.
