At the height of what Time magazine dubbed<br />
“AIDS hysteria” in 1983, college student David<br />
invites his boyfriend home to his parents’ house<br />
in Virginia where nothing has changed since the<br />
1800s — including the slave quarters. Confronting<br />
hypocrisy and oppression with exhilarating wit,<br />
Bradshaw’s incendiary work was “likely to leave<br />
you speechless!” (The New York Times). <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> and Thomas Bradshaw are the proud<br />
recipients of Prince Charitable Trusts’ Prince Prize<br />
for Commissioning Original Work for Mary.<br />
