Follow the cast of Off-Broadway's Afterglow through a two-show day at The Loft at The Davenport Theatre. Joe Chisholm, Brandon Haagenson,andDavid Merten star in the raw, intimate, and sometimes controversial exploration of the emotional, intellectual, and physical connections between three men. The show sponsored this year's AIDS walk, in which the cast marched during their two-show day May 20. Afterglow, written and directed by S. Asher Gelman,is now selling tickets through July 1, an extension that allowed the hit show to run beyond its one-year anniversary and through NYC Pride.

The boys of <i>Afterglow</i> meet with the rest of the team before heading out on the walk.
Aids Walk NYC is the largest single day AIDS fundraiser in the world, and <i>Afterglow</i> couldn’t be more proud to walk Sunday morning, after raising over $6000 in just a few weeks.
David, who plays Darius, hails a cab so the boys can make soundcheck for the Post-Walk Show, featuring the Pointer Sisters, Frenchie Davis, the <i>Afterglow</i> boys and some fan favorites from <i>Rupaul’s Drag Race</i>.

Tim, Joe, Brandon and David live their boy-band dreams performing a medley of their favorite pop "boys" songs.
Getting ready for show one: back at the Davenport, the boys get ready to dive into their first show of the day.
David continues his unhealthy addiction to <i>Sex and the City</i> between shows.
Joe, Tim and David drop by the 9th avenue street fair just outside the theatre, before heading back for Show # 2. Funnel Cake may have been eaten.
Just a sensible pushup contest between onstage husbands to get the energy going for the next show.
After a day like this, everyone could use a bed. Or some empty seats in the theatre. Whichever comes first.
