I saw Casa Valentina last night. It's Harvey Fierstein's new play about a group of men in 1962 who go up to a resort in the Catskills to live for weekends as transvestites. It's based on true events. The men are not gay and they are not drag queens. I do think one of them is questioning his gender identity but they all identify as heterosexual men who happen to enjoy dressing as women, like Eddie Izzard. There is discussion of "homosexuals" and how "we can't let them into our group" because they are "sick" and need help. It's a funny piece but it touches, especially in the second act, on very serious topics. I enjoyed it very much. It's a strong piece with some very good performances.
