"Partners" Larry and Kevin
	In what we hope will become a regular series on queer partnerships - not necessarily the loving kind but 'fer sure queer, we introduce you to playwrights Kevin Nelson and Larry Westlake of "Like Magic Entertainment." Introduced with the debut of "Kweerliun Klaymation" (© 1998, Gypsy Studios).
CBC's "Straight Up"
	Two girls (played by Mona Atwell and Evelyn Anders), one with intense feelings for the other, could it be...? We run a brief clip from the March 25th "Gravity" episode of CBC's Straight Up and let you figure it out.
Toronto AIDS Memorial
	We stop by the AIDS Memorial to remind you that the last call for the addition of 1997 names is March 31, 1998, and to take a look at the work being done in preparation for spring planting and the AIDS Vigil on June 25 during Pride week.
"My Dear Heretic" at Lee's Palace
	When these fellows sing "There's something about the way he stands, with his hands on his pelvis, his shoulders cocked, his hair, his eyes..." you can hear every gay boy's heart sigh. We catch up with My Dear Heretic and their lead singer Kelly Clipperton at Lee's Palace to talk about life and their recent "Haute Anxiety" CD.
"Benchmark" and "Bathhouse Suite"
	10%-Qtv checks out a double-bill of comedy by Canadian playwright Ken Brand, on at Buddies in Bad Times Theater from March 3 to 15. "Benchmarks" is a comedic look at a gay rebel who dies of AIDS, and "The Bathhouse Suite" explores the lives of some gay bathhouse regulars. The plays are presented by the Ladies Auxiliary Theatrical Cooperative, a new production company that helps to support its members by mounting plays by little-known queer writers and casting them with little-known queer actors. Speaking of which :-), you may recognize Qtv's own Gordon MacKeracher, who co-produced/starred in our "Miles to Go" series and played Spock in our recent "Queer Trek."
