Tubstrip is a risqué comedy set in a gay bathhouse written by Jerry Douglas. The original production, also directed by Douglas, premiered off-Broadway in 1973, played in eight other cities, and then opened on Broadway in 1974 with adult film star Casey Donovan in the lead role performing under the name Calvin Culver.Tubstrip is an erotic farce taking place in a New York City gay bathhouse over the course of a single evening. The main character is the bathhouse attendant Brian, who is desired by three other characters: the witty queen Andy, the naïve and romantic Richie, and the “straight” military man Bob. Other patrons contributing to the sexual pursuits, complicated by secrets and mistaken identities, include an S&M couple, a hustler, and a porn director. Brian, who had a crush on Bob in high school, eagerly awaits his arrival, but once he realizes that Bob is married, closeted, and won’t commit to more than a secret weekend fling, Brian rejects him and opts instead for the possibility of romance with Richie.The play premiered off-Broadway on May 17, 1973, at the Brecht Theatre in the Mercer Arts Theater. where it played 100 performances before the building housing the theatre collapsed.[ The production reopened for 40 more performances at the Players Theater and then went on tour, performing in eight cities, including Boston, Washington, DC, Philadelphia, Toronto, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.
