Equal parts heartfelt and hilarious, FoMo: Formerly Mormon is the story of a young man discovering his queer identity while signing his life away to the Mormon Church. Frankie Lee takes the audience along for the ride as he genuinely, and humorously, reflects on the opportunity he seized to escape Mormonism and live as a gay man, despite the very real pain and opposition he faced along the way.

“FoMo has shown me the power live theater holds to connect and heal,” said Frankie Lee , writer and actor in FoMo. “This was a challenge to myself — to build something from scratch and soar with it.

The show moves with urgency and intimacy, weaving between tender self-reckoning and laugh-out-loud comedy. Lee plays every character himself: the bishop, the gay angel, the congregation, and the young man caught between two callings he cannot reconcile. What emerges is a solo show that is at once a confession, a celebration, and a love letter to anyone who has ever had to choose between who they were told to be and who they are.

A veteran of The Second City New York, The PIT, and UCB NY, Lee has been performing and honing FoMo since its premiere at the Denver Fringe Festival, where it earned two awards and went on to an extended run at Benchmark Theatre in Lakewood, Colorado. Now the show makes its Hollywood Fringe debut for five nights of love, loss, tears, and queer cheers.

All performances at The Broadwater ( Second Stage ), 6320 Santa Monica Blvd., Los Angeles, CA. Runtime: 50 minutes.
