Pioneering Gay Playwright Forced to Write Porn Reviews
The introduction to Henrik Eger’s Q&A piece in the Philadelphia Gay News is both riveting and tragic:
Robert Patrick is the author of Kennedy’s Children and The Haunted Host, one of America’s oldest gay plays, now celebrating its 50th anniversary. He was one of the leading lights of the Off-Off Broadway, fringe and gay-theater movements in the United States. When he was younger, he made the mistake of selling his copyrights and now, at age 76, he survives in Los Angeles by writing porn reviews, even though he is still very creative and supportive of gay-theater arts.
