Austin Rainbow Theatre, Central Texas’ new home for LGBTQIA+ theatre, closes their inaugural season with the hilarious and thought-provoking play, Log Cabin. Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Jordan Harrison, Log Cabin delves into the complexities of queer identity, relationships, and community in contemporary America.

When a tight-knit circle of married gays (Chris & Ezra) and lesbians (Pam & Jules) – comfy in the new mainstream – find themselves challenged by the perspectives of their dapper transgender friend Henry and his new young girlfriend Myna, it’s clear that the march toward progress is anything but unified. As events unfold, tensions rise, and long-buried resentments and insecurities surface, each character is forced to confront their own biases and assumptions about gender, sexuality, and relationships.

Grappling with questions of privilege, intersectionality, and the evolving landscape of LGBTQIA+ rights and acceptance, conservative hearts are revealed where people would least expect. Through humor, heart, and honesty, this pointed comedy offers a fresh and compelling look at the modern challenges facing the LGBTQIA+ experience in the 21st century.
