Were the world Mine: A Musical Dream Come True

If you had a love-potion, who would you make fall madly in love with you?
Timothy, prone to escaping his dismal high school reality through dazzling
musical daydreams, gets to answer that question in a very real way. After
his eccentric teacher casts him as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream, he
stumbles upon a recipe hidden within the script to create the play's
magical, purple love-pansy. Armed with the pansy, Timothy's fading spirit
soars as he puckishly imposes a new reality by turning much of his
narrow-minded town gay, beginning with the rugby-jock of his dreams.
Ensnaring family, friends and enemies in this heart-wrenching chaos, Timothy
forces them to walk a mile in his musical shoes. The course of true love
never did run smooth, but by the end of this moving musical comedy of errors
based on director Tom Gustafson's prolific award-winning short film,
Fairies, the bumpy ride comes to a heartfelt conclusion. With vibrant
imagery, a first-rate ensemble cast and innovative music rivalling the best
of pop/rock and contemporary Broadway, Were the World Mine attempts to push
modern gay cinema and musical film beyond expectation.
Were the World Mine stars Chicago stage dynamo Wendy Robie (Twin Peaks),
Broadway star Judy McLane (Mamma Mia), Zelda Williams (House of D and
daughter of Robin Williams), soap opera diva Jill Larson (Opal on All My
Children) and introduces the extraordinary Tanner Cohen as Timothy.
