Pop songs tumble out of the jukebox, there is football on the TV, and the eight men lark around, pint glasses in hand.

“Hallelujah” is a queer/circus concept about religion and the importance of choosing kindness regardless of our differences or beliefs. Religion is a tough subject for many in the LGBTQ community, and this piece is a reflection of the struggle and rejection we often feel.

My message is that religion should inspire more kindness and open arms, even towards those you may not understand.

A child is born. We see underwater swimmers representing this. He is young, in a jungle setting, with two fanciful "instincts" guiding him as swooping bird-like acrobats initially menace, then delight.
