After a dozen homophobes disrupt a documentary stage production in Moscow, the director is brought in for questioning by police
On August 28, roughly a dozen men disrupted a performance of “Coming Out of the Closet,” a documentary stage production about Russia’s LGBTQ community. The theater’s website says the show is “about life, love, and the search for truth among modern-day Russian gay people.” Anastasia Paltai, the play’s director, told the website Mediazona that the intruders shouted and interfered with the actors. Outside the theater, a small group of people assembled carrying various homophobic signs.
