| Description |
"A Thousand and One Night Stands is a play about the sordid and tragic life of Jon Vincent... His life involved years of male prostitution, a long career in gay porn, all sorts of addictive drugs and alcohol and several marriages. Barry Lowe's play is based on the book of the same name written by Vincent's friend, Hope A. Carson, and conceived in the months before Vincent's death from a heroin overdose." |
