How to Tell a Secret
Shaun Dunne wrote and produced a play about his own process of disclosing his HIV+ status. Six years later, he inter­weaves rehearsals for the play with a story­tell­ing work­shop and a public presenta­tion for World AIDS Day, talking about the per­sis­tent stigma in Irish culture and the cor­res­pond­ing per­sis­tence of high rates of HIV trans­mis­sion. It’s a powerful story, and not just because I love an Irish accent. Definitely a MUST SEE.
