O TIME

When “Yank!”, David Zellnik’s musical about gays in the military during WWII, became a huge hit in Brazil in 2017, David found himself part of a passionate community of theatre makers including George Luis, the show’s vibrant 26-year-old producer. Two years later, George was dead – of a mysterious “sudden bacterial infection”. David returns to Brazil to attend his memorial, but the more he probes into George’s personal life, the more he’s forced to wrestle with his own feelings and fears and the real source of his desire to understand George’s life and death. Part memoir, part mystery – “O Time” explores the space between countries and cultures, language and translation, past and present, truth and lies.

Written and performed by David Zellnik, directed by Danilo Gambini, and based on actual events, “O Time” will be presented March 21-23 at Bridge Street Theatre, 44 West Bridge Street in Catskill, NY, as Show #3 in BST’s SoloFest 2025.
