Mason Street Warehouse theatre is honored to produce a staged reading of Academy Award winner Dustin Lance Black's new documentary play, "8".

Directed by SCA Artistic Director Kurt Stamm, "8" will bring together a cast of local and national theatre professionals to perform a play that deals with one of the most relevant issues of our time.

"8" demystifies the debate around marriage equality by chronicling the landmark trial of Perry v. Schwarzenegger. Learn about the historical context of marriage from expert testimony. See the human cost of discrimination. Uncover the arguments used to justify bans on marriage for gay and lesbian couples.

Using the actual court transcripts from the landmark federal trial of California's Prop. 8 and first-hand interviews, "8" shows both sides of the debate in a moving 90-minute play.
