JEAN-CLAUDE VAN ITALLIE's 1965 War and GEORGE BIRIMISA's 1967 Daddy Violet dealt respectively with games and an acting rehearsal. Each had fleeting moments when two male characters realized a subterranean sexual interest in each other.

So far as I'm concerned, the ultimate Cino play and gay play was written in 1983 by DORIC WILSON. It can be done on any bare floor with only 14 enthusiastic actors and a garbage can. It depicts the events on Christopher Street on the afternoon leading up to the Stonewall riots.
