This Memorial Square comes from Lauren in North Carolina. Lauren is a theatre aficionado and she wanted to honor the memory of the great Tony award-winning playwright Terrence McNally, whose work deeply affected her. Terrence wrote with wit, heart and gusto about gay life during the AIDS crisis and lost two partners to the AIDS virus. Terrence McNally survived lung cancer and kept writing plays through his eighth decade until he died of COVID-19 at the age of 81.
