Queer love in the time of resistance

In “Just Another Name for Light,” Donna Donna Teater creates a stage space where Mikael and Ethel’s love unfolds at the intersection of desire, identity, and limiting conditions.

On stage, the story grows through Eddie Mio Larson’s intense portrayal of Mikael, who moves between memory and confession. Time and space merge as Mikael recounts the encounter with Ethel and the love that both lifts and tears apart.

It is a story about queer love in history – but it speaks more broadly than that. Here is the universal experience of love that is not allowed, of relationships that are broken down by social conditions rather than feelings. Class, gender, culture, religion, body – all the obstacles that throughout history and even today make it difficult to take for granted: that two people want to share a life.
