"Gross Indecency" Los Angeles 1998

So I was kind of bummed that amongst my random assortment of FK stuff from the 90s, I did not find the newspaper clipping about a 1998 production of the play "Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde" that ran in Los Angeles.

Why did I think this might be with the FK stuff? Because Geraint Wyn Davies was in the play. And since I was a fan, lived in the area, and was an avid theater-goer, I went to see it.

I remembered clipping an article about the play and there being a color photo of all the cast. Alas, the clipping does not seem to have been a survivor among the things I kept across the decades. But then I thought, maybe I can find it in a newspaper archive online

Indeed, I did.

Unfortunately, the archived version is basically a black and white photocopy. This is fine for the article text, but terrible for the cast photo. It's definitely the photo I remember, but really, just abysmal quality. Ah well.

That fella there on the furthest left would be Ger.
