Puffin Cultural Forum presents a staged reading of Rainbow City, a mockumentary-style sitcom created by Benny Diego that follows the quirky, passionate staff of an underfunded LGBT resource center:

The Franklin D. Smith LGBT resource center is Asbury Park NJ’s #1 destination for queers in crisis. Services include HIV/STD testing, family planning options, and unsolicited relationship advice. This is all thanks to the tireless efforts of managing director and HBIC (head bear in charge) Harvey Mitchell, who dreams of transforming his humble facility into an epicenter of local LGBT culture. If only he could get people to attend his events. Or answer his emails. Or figure out what the heck a “Tiktok” is. Good thing he has his moody assistant Sinead O’Conor (no relation), his fabulous receptionist Shantelle, his trusty but quiet resident nurse James, and his mysterious nonbinary volunteer Demi, who must be around here… somewhere?

Rainbow City explores the magic and misadventures of a group of LGBT misfits as they contrive creative schemes to increase funding, engage the community, and break out into song.

Stay after the show for a talkback!
