If We Didn't Do It, Who Would?

That is the motto of the Richmond Triangle Players.

Formed in 1992 by three gay men as a way to raise money to combat the AIDS crisis, Richmond Triangle Players has grown to produce shows that passionately explore the gay experience in its many forms including breast cancer, diversity, aging and dying, and, of course, relationships.

Their website explains their purpose best. "Richmond Triangle Players is committed to the passionate exploration of theatre and its role in the global community. We embrace a wide audience with a focus on works relevant to the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities. Our highest aim is to enlighten those around us with theatre that warms the heart, educates the mind and entertains the spirit."

Their productions have run the gamut from humor to serious issues and have featured such well know titles as "Kiss of the Spider Woman" and "The Judas Kiss." They are the only theater company that Harvery Fierstein allowed to produce his "Forget Him."

In their short history, they have produced an impressive 60 productions and over 600 performances. If you haven't seen an RTD production, you are missing out on something special! The intimate theater at Fielden's holds only 76 guests so, no matter where you sit, you feel as if you are a part of the action.

Their next production, "Visiting Mr. Green" is a world-renowned play that explores what happens when a 29-year old law-breaker is given a community service sentence that requires visiting an elderly widower.

RTP also gives back to the community that has supported it so well for its 15 years. Richmond Organization for Sexual Minority Youth, Diversity Thrift, Arts Fund, Richmond Theater Arts Fund and Gay Pride Virginia have all been recipients of RTD's generosity.

This is a great troupe. I highly recommend their current production, "The Eight: Reindeer Monologues", which is only going through the 8th of December.
