Plays of Wilton & Ronnie Larsen Presents Mount a World Premiere Play Sponsored by CAN Community Health Foundation

The world premieres of PrEP’d, conceived by Ronnie Larsen and Joseph Guidetti, written by Ronnie Larsen and developed through a grant from CAN Community Health Foundation will run for 17 performances at The Foundry in Wilton Manors from Friday, November 1 through Sunday November 24, 2024. PrEP’d will be the tenth world premiere presented at The Foundry since their inception in 2020.
PrEP’d is a new play by Ronnie Larsen informed by a series of interviews conducted with gay men in South Florida and Ronnie’s own firsthand experiences. PrEP’d tells the story of Jerry Withers, a gay man, whose sexual development is stifled by the trauma of living through - and surviving - the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s. Despite the advent of PrEP to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV, Jerry continues to struggle negotiating sex and love in a modern and extremely complicated world. Following his performance in the sold out run of Scenes From My Love Life, Harry Redlich returns to The Foundry to star as Jerry. He is joined by Foundry Alumni, Zach Krouch, Jeffrey Roach and Jack Stein. Making their Foundry debuts are Gianni Palermo, Sam Lantz, Geoff Freitag and Ben Prayz.

This project would not have been possible without the generosity and support of CAN Community Health. They believe that everyone deserves access to compassionate care and the resources they need to live their healthiest lives.
