This ambitious piece premiered in San Francisco, performed by the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus, as part of their 35th anniversary celebrations in June 2013. After that performance, choruses and performing arts halls across the country had the option of putting I Am Harvey Milk on their schedules. I Am Harvey Milk even got its chance on Broadway with a one-night-only performance last October, starring Lippa and Tony Award winner Kristin Chenoweth.
