GMCW will kick off Capital Pride singing about the wonderful people who love us, support us and stick with us through thick and thin. The first half of the show is a powerful and inspiring celebration of the beauty of friends and lovers. The second half will feature the East Coast premiere of through a glass, darkly, one of the edgiest new theater pieces ever commissioned by a gay chorus. Composed by Michael Shaieb for three actors, dancers and chorus, the piece wrestles with a burgeoning crisis in the GLBT community: crystal meth addiction. Very simply, it is a story of a young man addicted to meth, and how it changes his life and the lives of the people around him. The music captures the hard-driven sound of the club scene with a combination of electronica and more traditional choral singing. Commissioned and first performed by the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus in March, 2008 to sold-out audiences, the piece passionately reinforces the truth that, with friends, we gain the insight to see life more clearly.
