Xandra Clark: “Everything You’re Told” (a reading)

Thursday, December 12, 7pm

Two college seniors want to make a difference: Alex, a member of the Gay-Straight Alliance, works on the peer support line; Kevin, a member of the University Fellowship of Jesus, studies philosophy. They meet when Kevin calls the line, and their frank conversation about religion and homosexuality thrusts them into an unexpected romance. But Alex’s lesbian friend Mia and Kevin’s spiritual mentor Luke have some objections to their relationship. As the end of college looms and the complexities of the larger world seep into their relationship, Alex and Kevin must figure out how much of themselves to reveal to each other, and if it’s truly possible to love someone whose ideas you oppose.
