Confessions of a Mormon Boy

Confessions of a Mormon Boy is Steven Fales’s compelling, humorous, and inspiring true story about a young gay man who went from being a model Mormon boy in Utah to a high-priced call boy in New York City. His captivating tale takes audiences through his excommunication from the Mormon church, divorce, male prostitution and drug abuse, as he struggles to reclaim himself, his children and his “Donny Osmond smile.”

The very personal play shows the link between spiritual abuse and addiction. Fales defines spiritual abuse as any time an individual, group, or institution uses religion to justify telling or showing anyone they are not worthy of god’s full love and blessings. Mormon Boy also illustrates the dilemma of those struggling to reconcile their dreams of becoming straight with the realities of being gay and what it costs to accept or deny that truth when children are involved.
