Theatre Nova Presents "Spin"

When LGBTQ+ teens are kicked out of their disapproving parents homes, they often seek solace in a homeless shelter. In the 2015 play “Spin” by Emilio Rodriguez, two roommates at a shelter for LGBTQ+ teens struggle together as homeless, gay youth of color in present day America. One is open for love, and the other is closed off— but their mutual struggles and individual secrets draw them together. This hip-hop love story first premiered at Theater Nova in Ann Arbor last year as a staged reading under the name “Swimming While Drowning.” See the revamped production during its four week run, premiering Friday, June 17. Through July 10. 8pm Thursday-Saturdays, 2pm Sundays. $20 suggested donation, but every ticket is pay-what-you-can.
