A group of diverse gays, including a set of Jekyll-and-Hyde twins, convene throughout one summer -- Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, Labor Day (Act One, Act Two, Act Three) -- in a remote lakeside house such as Chekhov might have coveted, to air their thoughts and feelings ("People are sick of [AIDS] benefits!" "Especially the people they're being given for!"), in a strictly regulated alternation of high spirits and low. Terrence McNally's cloying theater piece retains its original stage cast -- and original stage director, Joe Mantello -- except that Nathan Lane has been replaced with Seinfeld's Jason Alexander, who seems to be doing a conscious Nathan Lane impression, intermingled with stray bits of wimpy Woody Allen (Woody and the mosquito, Woody and the volleyball...). With Randy Becker, Stephen Bogardus, John Glover (in the dual role), John Benjamin Hickey, Justin Kirk, Stephen Spinella. (1997) — Duncan Shepherd
