Strings Attached
por Chayton
Pabich Danyla
Woven from love, loss, and resilience, Strings Attached is a camouflage patchwork of a quarter-life crisis, where one man wakes between bed sheets and battle scars to discover the man he went to bed with the night before has vanished. Transfixed by a deer skull and the North Georgia pines, this solo play interrogates the cost of military service, the debris of queer love, and the ethics of hunting.
Strings Attached curiously explores how queer love can tear into us, and sew us back together again.
This world premiere of STRINGS ATTACHED was part of the Inaugural Lavender Fest, and was made possible through the generosity of Out Front Theatre, and A Grape View Tours.
"A gorgeous fever dream... Such an epic and also human-scale story of love, sex and family" - Tim Miller, one of the NEA Four

​On-air Radio interview with Lois Reitzes, promoting the world premiere of Strings Attached in Atlanta.
"Poetic and heartfelt, Strings Attached is an
intimate hour of romantic conversation. Full of
high highs and low lows, a deer skull stares you down from center stage and is surrounded by the stylish decorations of an animated young artist's living space."
- Obie Outlaw, OOOH!!! REVIEWS
"Strings Attached is a masterpiece of emotion, intertwining the hearts of the audience with the soul of the performer like a song that touches the memories we all hold near. This is the most heartfelt work of live theater I’ve ever seen. Poetry in motion and in words, Chayton Pabich Danyla stuns with acting and writing that work in perfect harmony. Truly excited to see what this artist does next."
--World Premiere, Audience Reaction
After the play's success in Atlanta, STRINGS ATTACHED went Off-Broadway at the historic Dixon Place theatre, as part of their HOT! Festival.
HOT! began at Dixon Place in 1992 as the first all-inclusive month-long LGBTQIA+ festival. It remains the longest-running festival of its kind in the world!
