TICKETS: http://www.heavyfantasy.com/tickets Saturdays in February 1, 8, 15, & 22 at 8pm; Sunday 23rd 3pm (Tickets will be online day of the show until 5pm After that please purchase at the door) NASHVILLE SCENE CRITIC'S PICK: http://www.nashvillescene.com/nashville/sex-dreams-and-self-control/Event?oid=4042503 Kevin Thornton's 2009 hit one man show "Sex, Dreams & Self Control" will revive at OutCentral for a limited engagement in February. The show was named "Best one man show" by the Nashville Scene in 2010 and played to frequently sold-out houses. In 2010, Thornton toured the show nationwide to rave reviews. It landed him a spot on NPR's "All Things Considered" and OutSmart Magazine said it was, "…at once nostalgic and perverse. The result is charming, refreshing, and unabashedly naked." In a time where the country is sharply divided and gay marriage is quickly gaining ground, Thornton feels like a revisit to the material is appropriate. "The show is about my journey to self acceptance. I grew up in a very fundamentalist christian setting. It was a long painful process to admit that I was gay. Even though the world has changed so much since those days, I'm still amazed how many people are having a difficult time coming out. There are so many communities, especially religious ones, where being gay is quite difficult." The show features original music also written by Thornton. "It's an hilarious, heartbreaking one man musical," says Thornton. The runs every saturday in february at 8pm. There will be one matinee at 3pm Sunday February 23. The performances take place at OutCentral (1709 Church St. Nashville, TN 37203) Tickets are $10 in advance/ $15 at the door. Advance tickets are available at www.heavyfantasy.com Group rates are available.
