Hello All, It’s Eugene Grygo, and I have an upcoming gay play, “Graduation,” about a young journalist in 1983. This is the third production of “Graduation,” and I’m hoping that the third time’s the charm.

It’s the story of two young men in 1983 who are sorting out their future together after college. However, their dream is threatened when one of them wants to deny the love that will define their lives. Can a new identity change who you love?
