same same but different
Traveling from Asheville, NC, this show is a dramatic conversation between two gay men of different generations, comparing life stories, with a Freaky Friday twist.
It is based on stories from the actors' lives, including the exploration of what it means to be close friends. Being vulnerable with each other (in front of an audience, of course) brings them to a dynamic shift.
This is a serious comedy from two funny, deep-thinking and -feeling guys, who love bringing real life, with a healthy degree of fantasy, to the stage. The show won the "Pushing the Boundaries of Storytelling" award at Asheville Fringe Arts Festival 2025.
