Bathhouse.PPTX starts out as an amusing look at the history of cleanliness but quickly devolves into something much darker about the history of gay bathhouses. While the loneliness and need for connection of the men who inhabited these historic locations is relatable, the excess of full-frontal male nudity and graphic simulations of sex in this show will probably be too much for some people, and they also make the show extremely unsuitable for children.
In a time when some would like nothing better than to force others back into the closet, the show is extremely timely. It reminds us that even though we have obviously not yet achieved true equality we must continue to strive forward and not go backward.
And that's our view. For more about Bathhouse.PPTX or to purchase tickets, visit theflea.org/shows/bathhouse-pptx
