Event Description

“Casey” is Casey House in Toronto-Canada’s first hospice for men dying of AIDS. “Diana” is Princess Diana-who visited Casey House in 1991-and changed the world’s attitude towards the disease. Thomas has spent five months in Casey House waiting to die. Now he’s hoping he’ll live long enough to meet the Princess he idolizes.

Why I Chose This Play
As a gay man, I lived through this horrific time-so much fear and so little information. We heard stories of hospital staff too frightened to deliver meals to AIDS patients (which was actually the impetus behind the founding of Casey House). Thomas in this play reminds me of so many men who contracted this disease, facing death with a mixture of anger and sadness-and a helluva lot of snap and flair-! Michael Shamata

This production of Casey and Diana is supported in part by a generous gift from Elaine Montgomery and Robert Maitland
