                            THIS WAY OUT
                 the international gay & lesbian radio magazine
                      Program #965 - the week of 9/25/06
         (hosted by Greg Gordon and produced with Lucia Chappelle)
  An Asian-American family comes to terms with change through "Red Doors";
   A Canadian Ember, Texas break-ups and Broadway soul in the "Audiofile";
  Global South Anglicans set a course for schism, workplace bias protections
 pass Latvia's legislature, influential Indians urge sex law repeal, unequal
 age of consent doesn't appeal to a Hong Kong court, Jerusalem finally makes
                  time for Pride, and more global GLBT news

* In "NewsWrap": The global Anglican Communion appears to be formally coming 
apart over the place of gays and lesbians in church life, even as an Arkansas 
Episcopal priest becomes the first of his denomination in the state to bless a 
gay couple's relationship... Latvia finally complies with a European Union 
membership requirement to ban sexual orientation-based workplace bias... more 
than 100 leading writers, filmmakers, academics and journalists publish an open 
letter in India urging repeal of the nation's "brutal and archaic" law 
criminalizing consensual homosexual activity... Hong Kong's government loses its 
appeal of a court ruling overturning the Special Administrative Region's unequal 
age of consent law... the Japanese city of Miyakonojo removes specific 
references to gender and sexual orientation from its human rights law, but activists 
in Jerusalem finally get permission and set a date for the city's annual Pride 
parade... and other GLBT news from around the world (written by GREG GORDON 
and reported this week by DON LUPO and TANYA KANE-PARRY).

* In the new film "RED DOORS," a Chinese-American retiree's sudden 
disappearance spawns life-changing events in each of his three daughters.  This 
painfully real comedy, finally opening theatrically in the U.S., has captivated 
audiences, critics, and festival jurors en route to winning awards at Tribeca, 
Cinevegas, and Outfest.  Absurdly funny and absolutely moving, says This Way Out's 
STEVE PRIDE, the film provides a rare view of the modern Asian American 
family, and includes at its center a lesbian daughter.  He has preview clips 
featuring star MIA RIVERTON, and comments from writer/director GEORGIA LEE about 
making her first feature film [www.reddoorsmovie.com;  www.stevepride.com].

* A prolific veteran defies description (excerpts from "Some Fine Day" and 
"Ten Pin" from EMBER SWIFT's "THE DIRTY PULSE"), a newcomer explores his gay 
identity "Cinderella's Lament" and "Selfish Song" from JEREMY HENRY's "BITTERLY 
EVER AFTER YOU"), and a Broadway baby sings his gospel ("Let It Sing" and "And 
I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from BILLY PORTER's "AT THE CORNER OF 
BROADWAY+SOUL") in this month's installment of the "AUDIOFILE" (with comments by each 
artist, hosted by CHRIS WILSON & JD DOYLE, and written and produced with 
CHRISTOPHER DAVID TRENTHAM).
