The Gay Futureworld through April 22 in L.A.

In the future the first gay chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will wage war, a Gaydar Detector will scan anyone who crosses its path, and homophobes will become an extinct species. At least that's the scenario that's laid out in the play Beyond the Beyond: The Gay Futureworld. This puppet-laden comedic sci-fi fantasy will be onstage through April 22 at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center's Davidson/Valenti Theater, 1125 N. McCadden Pl.
