Hello. I designed sets and lights for Bill Solly’s “Boy Meets Boy” in L.A. in 1976. Feel it’s time for the show to be revived here (gay marriage, after all). Amazingly, Bill at present can’t lay his hands on his own script! I have a poor video of closing night performance that for a prospective producer to follow rather requires having a script to refer to. Bill emailed me that Bill Hoffman’s “Gay Plays” contains the script. I see “The First Collection” under the title above. So I don’t know in which collection (or if a second was even published) “Boy Meets Boy” appears in. Could you answer this question for me? Whatever the anthology is, I’ll be needing to purchase a copy.
Thanks… Terrell Rodefer
