Pure Glitter by Douglas Lyons is a vibrant, heartfelt comedy celebrating the messy, glittering bonds of chosen family. At Stan and Tony’s 10th anniversary surprise party, old friends and new flames collide in a whirlwind of revelations, shade, and musical theater debates.

With sharp wit, iconic diva references, and a dance-filled finale, this play sparkles with humor and heart, reminding us that even when life shatters, friendship is the glue that holds us together. From the author of the recent hit Chicken & Biscuits.

Pure Glitter, a dazzling new play by Douglas Lyons is a love letter to the chaotic, shimmering world of chosen family and the queer experience. Set in the vibrant chaos of Stan and Tony’s 10th anniversary surprise party, this comedy dives into the lives of six unforgettable gay men—each with their own flair, flaws, and fabulousness. Stan, the curator in crisis, hosts a night meant to celebrate love, but the arrival of flamboyant Rance, nervous Blair, chill Dwight, wise-beyond-his-years Niko, and mediator Tony sparks a cascade of unexpected drama.

Perfect for theatergoers who adore witty banter, heartfelt moments, and the sparkle of queer camaraderie, this play captures the magic of friendship as the ultimate lifeline. When life’s vase shatters, these “complicated, turtleneck-judging, bitchy, musical theater gays” prove that even in the messiest moments, love and laughter create a mosaic of pure glitter. Join them for a night of chaos, connection, and a reminder that no one survives alone—especially not with friends like these.
