PHILLIE’S TRILOGY theatricalizes the spectacular returns of truth-telling, especially for artists, and especially for LGBTQ+ artists. It shows us how using one's creative work to expose what was once buried takes both courage and a willingness to hurt the people you love—or believe you’ve loved. Doug De Vita gives us deliciously grounded, salt-of-the-earth characters within a theatrical structure that allows us experience how combustive moments resonate throughout the lives of Phillie, Barbie, and the rest of this gloriously aggrieved crew. I'd love to see this play. ”
