The Boys In The Band at Theatre Baton Rouge

On Monday, January 16, 2023 I was invited to photograph dress rehearsals for Theatre Baton Rouge’s production of Boys In The Band.

After photographing the boys in their black turtle-necks weeks prior, I was ecstatic to finally be photographing them in the performance studio.

Getting a chance to see them bring these characters to life was something I was much anticipating. I wasn’t familiar with the actual stories associated with The Boys in The Band, nor had I read the original play, or even watched the modern revival.

The themes explored in this production ranged from racism to homophobia, especially internalized-homophobia, as well as taking a look at the, sometimes complicated, social dynamics between queer men, and the unique relationships they can have with one another.
