Troy is the Sister Dottie writer who was at the performance I attended last week. Two of his quotes I particularly liked:

This may have something to do with how Mormons are taught to perform their faith. We express our beliefs by putting on a show — be it the monthly ritual of testimony bearing or the classic stake road show. As a missionary in Britain I didn’t want to knock doors so I wrote my own Book of Mormon play instead. It was dramatically titled “Voices from the Dust” and we had two sold out runs in the Cardiff, Wales Stake. I recruited the entire mission zone to dress up in make-up and Judeo-Native apparel to re-enact the best bits. This is what happens when you put closeted gay boys in charge of other people’s salvation. We dress each other in Nephite drag.

After leaving the theatre I was struck with the question: “how did Mormons and gays ever come into such severe conflict with each other? Are there two other groups of people who share such a cheese ball affinity for feel good musical theatre?” I don’t think so.

Thanks for the link. That is a great review.
