The Advocate's man on the New York theater scene turns off the dark of Broadway's gay-friendly closings with festive queer holiday shows from Justin Bond, Mimi Imfurst, Moisty the Snowman, and many more.

Aside from the media's bashing of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, which finally began previews November 28, this past month has been defined by premature Broadway closings and closing notices due to weak ticket sales. Unfortunately, many of those pink-slipped plays were headlined by openly gay actors. Originally scheduled to run through January 2, a revival of A Life in the Theatre, which starred T.R. Knight, closed November 28. Originally scheduled to run until February 12, La Bête, which stars David Hyde Pierce, will now end January 9. Poor Elling, which starred Denis O'Hare, also closed November 28 — after only nine regular performances! Jeez, was it something we said?
