Thunderclap Productions presents the world premiere of The Chosen Ones, a riveting new musical by Aaron Alon. Heart-wrenching, hilarious, and ultimately unforgettable, the show follows a group of LGBTQ+ teens in a conversion therapy summer camp, led by an “ex-gay” minister. The Chosen Ones is a timely story of living authentically and finding your chosen family, even when the world tells you not to.

 This production is directed and choreographed by Aisha Ussery, with music direction by Phillip D. Hall.   

This world premiere is presented as part of our John Steven Kellett Memorial Series of works relating to LGBTQ+ equity. Thunderclap Productions is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance.

Content Warning: This show contains adult language, descriptions of sexual acts, and content relating to conversion therapy, self-harm/suicide, homophobia, and transphobia. 

This show is recommended for older teens and adults.
