Synopsis

"The U.S. Supreme Court Is on Trial for Maliciously Discriminating Against Gays and Lesbians!" 'To Be Let Alone' was written in response to the United States Supreme Court decision to uphold Georgia's law prohibiting sodomy between consensual gay adults. The play ran from February to April 1990, a few months after the 1989 White Night Riots in San Francisco's Castro district and a couple of weeks after its challenging court case was initially turned down by the California courts. The controversial production was picketed in protest of gay rights and panned in a few reviews. The play won a 1990 Los Angeles Dramalogue Award. A law-changing play, 'To Be Let Alone' inspired and re-catalyzed improvements to gay rights that we enjoy today.
