Description

From Salt Lake to New York, both cities have come to define the divergent worlds of Steven Fales's one-man hit, Confessions of a Mormon Boy. Now, read for yourself the stirring and often shocking true story of one man's coming out as a gay Mormon and being excommunicated from the only church he ever knew, to his harrowing ordeal of sex and drugs in a city that almost consumed him. But this is more than just a companion book for a stage play. Steven Fales--creator, author, performer-- invites readers to experience his full journey, from script to stage. He takes you backstage after his triumphant Off-Broadway opening; he shares his creative vision of the show, as well as exclusive letters, emails, and finally, one last confession.
