Summary/Abstract: A review of the play Jerker or the Helping Hand by Robert Chesley, directed by Glenn Kessler (Space 916, West Hollywood in Los Angeles, premiere: 4.11.2011). Stępniak describes the plot and outlines the history and significance of “one of the most famous gay plays,” written in 1986. This historio-cultural context is important for this twenty-fifth anniversary presentation of Jerker by Glenn Kessler, and is the reason for the drama seeming outdated.
