In a future ruled by The Council, where faith is outlawed in favor of the "benefit of all," Gabriel is born into the oppressive society of Natura Meta and slated for forced gender transition. Visited in dreams by his ancestor Beatriz, Gabriel awakens to faith and escapes into a dangerous, unknown world. In Louisiana, the Creole tribe teaches him the old ways, and across his journey—through love in the desert among the Jews, slavery under Texas cowboys, and ultimately discovery in Mexico—Gabriel grows from a weak boy into a strong man of faith. As he builds a hidden Christian community in a godless world, Natura Meta puts a bounty on his head. Gabriel must return home to ignite a war for true freedom, risking everything to break the chains of tyranny.WebsiteAmazon Books

On this episode of Baring It All with Call Me Adam, on the Broadway Podcast Network, I am recording at The Houdini Museum in NYC with Director Carl Andress, whose long time collaboration with Tony nominee Charles Busch is continuing at the Cherry Lane Theatre with Charles' hilarious new show The Confession of Lily Dare, running through March 5. The Confession of Lily Dare is part of Primary Stages 35th Anniversary Season. The Confession of Lily Dare tells the story of one woman’s tumultuous passage from convent girl to glittering cabaret chanteuse to infamous madame of a string of brothels—all while hiding her undying devotion to the child she was forced to abandon. This comic melodrama celebrates the gauzy “confession film” tearjerkers of early 1930s pre-code cinema, such as The Sin of Madelon Claudet, Frisco Jenny, and Madame X. The Confession of Lily Dare will play at The Cherry Lane Theatre (38 Commerce Street) through March 5. Click here for tickets! The Houdini Museum is located at 213 West 35th Street, 4th floor, in Midtown Manhattan. Like what you hear? Then become a member of my Patreon Page for exclusive behind-the-scene perks!

And as if that wasn'ttwisted enough, he decided to make it a musical. The script caught the eye of director Jay Stern, who has directed a string ofacclaimed NYC Fringe shows, including the award-winning musical “The Bardy Bunch.” For HELL IS FOR REAL, Stern and his team assembled a dream cast, populated with Broadway heavy-hitters.
