Sleeping With Straight Men

Based on real-life events, Sleeping With Straight Men is a humorous and hard hitting fictional account of what occurred when a taped appearance on The Jenny Jones Show ended with tragic results. On the program, a gay man, Scott Amedure, revealed his secret crush on his unwitting straight neighbor, Jonathan Schmitz; then, three days after the taping Schmitz shot Amedure to death. Schmitz was convicted of second-degree murder and Amedure's family received a $25 million settlement from Jenny Jones. Ronnie Larsen’s translation of this tragic incident is funny and thought provoking, a look at forbidden temptations and the darkness that clouds men’s souls. Runs May 13th through June 4th, 2011, Thursdays thru Saturdays at 8pm, Saturday & Sundays at 2pm.
