If you’ve seen Dear Harvey, you know what a powerful message it brings: Harvey Milk's message of love, hope, and belief in equality for all.

Dear Harvey will be performed in August 20-28 at the 199-seat Soho Playhouse, an Off-Broadway theatre. Click here for the performance times. FringeNYC has selected the show as one of its “FringeHIGH” events, scheduling a talkback for high school students after the second performance! Festival tickets go on sale July 23.

We know these are tough economic times. Every contribution of any size helps. Your tax deductible donation will go to Diversionary Theatre for the production of Dear Harvey at FringeNYC.

THANK YOU!!

 

History of the Show

Drawn from over thirty interviews conducted by Patricia Loughrey, Dear Harvey recounts the achievements and vision of Harvey Milk, the first openly gay man elected to a major public office in the United States. The tribute play weaves together the voices of a drag queen, a State Senator, an international gay rights activist, a nineteen-year-old composer and others with the personal and political writings of Harvey Milk to paint a portrait of a leader, and a vision for equality. Original music by Thomas Hodges.

 

Commissioned by Diversionary Theatre, Dear Harvey had its world premiere at Diversionary in April 2009.
