About the Play
Annie and Curtis host a wildly unpopular podcast from Annie’s living room in which they “queer history,” reinterpreting Philadelphia lore through an modern, intersectional lens. When Annie finds a hidden diary that reveals a buried connection to the early LGBT rights movement, the political suddenly gets explosively personal. In addition to exploring the issues of friendship and honesty, this hilarious and poignant play tackles fundamental questions about how we view the past: Who owns history? Who gets to tell it? Are there parts of it that are best left untold?
Content Warning
TIME IS ON OUR SIDE contains some queer slurs, frank explorations of how we need and exploit history, and so many jokes.
