Coming In

Coming In is the story of Mitchell, a confident gay man who wakes up straight on the morning of his wedding.

Synposis

Mitchell is a 30-year-old theatre actor who is starring in a play with his best friend Margot. He’s successful, has good friends, and is engaged to be married. The night before his wedding, Mitchell has a nightmare. “It was like the gay was…draining out of me,” he later recalls. The next morning when he wakes up, everything feels different. He doesn’t know it yet, but he is now straight.

The stages of Mitchell’s “coming in” are similar to those of the coming out process. There’s confusion and secrecy, there are attempts to hide sexuality, there are new and exciting sexual awakenings. Mitchell is “outed” against his will, his relationships change, and he risks losing everything in order to be true to himself, just as one does when they come out of the closet.
