During the play, which is set in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, backgrounds of characters are discovered during a birthday party. Harold celebrates his birthday party, thrown by six of his closest friends. He becomes increasingly morose about losing his youthful looks and claims that he no longer can attract cute young men. "Cowboy", an attractive blond male prostitute who is "not too bright",is one of Harold's presents. Alan is an unexpected party guest, Michael's allegedly straight college friend,who is in town and anxious to tell Michael something—but hesitant to do so when he sees the group. His six closest friends are: Michael is Harold's "friend-enemy",the host, and a lapsed Roman Catholic alcoholic undergoing psychoanalysis Donald is a conflicted friend, who has moved from the city to spurn the homosexual "lifestyle". Bernard is an African-American, who still pines for the wealthy white boy in the house, where his mother worked as a maid. Emory is flamboyant and "effeminite". Larry, an aggressively sexual homosexual, and Hank, who "passes" as straight, are a couple, who live together but disagree on the issue of monogamy. During the party, one humor takes a nasty turn, as the nine men become increasingly inebriated. The party culminates in a game, where each man must call someone and tell him he loves him. Michael, believing that Alan has finally "outed" himself when he makes his call, realizes that Alan's wife is the caller when he grabs the phone away from Alan. The audience never learns what Alan intended to discuss with Michael in the end.

Voices & Visions (1988)
Douban
Voices & Visions, a video series from Annenberg Media, explores the lives and works of 13 of America's most famous modern poets. Individual Program Descriptions: 1. Elizabeth Bishop From childhood in Nova Scotia to travels in Brazil, this program illustrates the geographic spirit of Bishop's life and works with scenes from her poems. 2. Hart Crane Diverse locations and dramatizations of his life illustrate Crane's poetry and his greatest work, "The Bridge." 3. Emily Dickinson Dramatic scenarios and New England landscapes illuminate the passionate genius of Dickinson, whose poems represent a broad range of imaginative experience. 4. T. S. Eliot Eliot's life, influence, and poetry from the bold originality of "Prufrock" to the probing, meditative style of "Four Quartets" are explored with photos, archival footage, and discussion with friends, critics, and scholars. 5. Robert Frost Frost's image as elder statesman is vividly contrasted with his vigorous, poetic exploration of the darker forces of nature and the human condition. Readings and interviews with the poet reveal compelling insights into his work. 6. Langston Hughes Hughes wrote of the beauty, dignity, and heritage of blacks in America. Interviews, music, and dance performances convey his work and influence, discussed by James Baldwin and biographer Arnold Rampersad. 7. Robert Lowell Lowell's political passion encompasses much of his greatest poetry. Lowell himself reads from his work. Elizabeth Hardwick, Robert Hass, and others discuss his development and style as illustrated by "Lord Weary's Castle" and "Life Studies." 8. Marianne Moore Funny, formidable, and paradoxical, the poet and her work are analyzed by critics and friends, including Monroe Wheeler, Grace Shulman, and Patricia Willis. Her most memorable poems display her power of observation and moral force. 9. Sylvia Plath The creative intensity with which Plath confronted her experiences as daughter, wife, mother, and writer is explored in documentary and archival footage intercut with visualizations of her work. 10. Ezra Pound The most controversial of American poets — artistic catalyst, legendary confidant, and author of brilliant cantos — Ezra Pound and his poetry and role in the modernist movement are explored by friends and critics. 11. Wallace Stevens Stevens's flamboyant verbal technique and philosophical vision of American life are beautifully illustrated by archival footage. 12. Walt Whitman Brilliant readings of Whitman's poems demonstrate his American vision and style and vividly convey their poignance and sheer power. Whitman's sources, including Emerson, the King James Bible, opera, and political oratory, are revealed. 13. William Carlos Williams "No ideas but in things," Williams's aesthetic dictum sought to capture, not analyze. A collage of documentary footage, interviews, animation, and dramatization capture the poet's often visual work and intense life.
