The Full Monty is the Go! cover story today


The Fine Arts Center says it won't shy away from 'The Full Monty'

T.D.

"Again, people talk about the last 30 seconds of the show," he says.

"For me, it's the humanity of the piece. Shakespeare wrote ‘Hold a mirror up to nature.' These are real people and they have real problems and the way they find release is through friendship.
It's about the fellas."

Right, sure, but do they do IT?

"Let me put it this way," he says.

"There's no question as to whether or not they do."
