Casa Valentina
Written by Harvey Fierstein
Directed by Michael Bruno
Casa Valentina brings us back to the Catskills in 1962. Most men went to the Catskill Mountains to escape the summer heat, but others took the two-hour drive to escape something else entirely: being men. Nestled in the land of dirty dancing and borscht belt comedy sat an inconspicuous bungalow colony that catered to a very special clientele: heterosexual men whose favorite pastime was dressing and acting as women.
