The quiet decade that followed Junot Díaz’s leap into the limelight heaped the author with awards, but left readers anxious.

Rated 3.5 by 13 members who went. This hysterical farce stars Academy Award nominee Rosie Perez as Googie Gomez and Tony Award nominee Kevin Chamberlin as Gaetano Proclo, a gay man hiding out from his homicidal brother-in-law who inadvertently finds himself in a gay bathhouse.
