 Support the Topeka AIDS Project by attending a special performance of "Twilight of the Golds" Feb. 18 at the Topeka Civic Theatre.
The evening kicks off with a wine & cheese reception at 7 p.m., followed by the play at 8 p.m. The drama, written by Jonathan Tolins, follows the Gold family, who discovers that their unborn child most likely will be born gay. The play has mature themes and may not be suitable for younger audiences.
The tickets cost $25. Proceeds will benefit the Topeka AIDS Project, a local organization committed to providing client services to HIV-infected persons and their families, and to educating the Topeka community about HIV/AIDS.
For tickets, visit the Topeka Civic Theatre Web site or call 785-232-3100. |

 Calamity ensues when a male single parent statistician turns effeminate romance novelist.
Directed by Carole Rees, "Nobody's Perfect" at Topeka Civic Theatre & Academy is a charming romantic comedy of Jeff Boyer's character, Leonard, a divorced father who works at home, living with his daughter Dee Dee, played by Sara Kennedy and semi-senile father Gus, Kim Reilly. As a statistician that had always wanted to be a writer, Leonard submits a romance novel to a publishing contest under the pseudonym Lulabell Latifah. When he wins the contest, he finds that the editor, Harriet, needs to meet the imaginary woman to sign contracts to release publication rights and have the prize money awarded. Leonard then, in hopes of duping the editor, dresses in drag. In this persona, he becomes comfortable in conversing with the editor and begins to fall in love, where otherwise he would be a mumbling, stumbling wreck in his attempts to converse with her.
