Description
TY intermixes elements of yesterday's lighter comedies with today's
darker works dealing with AIDS. Joey, a fiesty PWA with six months
to live, acquires a book of white magic spells while on a final
vacation with Eric (his former partner/current caregiver) and
Eric's religious mother, Helen Flanders. When an unbelieving Mrs.
Flanders reads aloud an incantation, her personality as well as
those of Joey and young gay Billy (Eric's potential new boyfriend)
all switch bodies. While attempting to reverse the spell, the
multiple identity crises of these three disparate and desperate
characters give way to more realistic and compassionate
perspectives. Critic Comments
