Terrence McNally’s Some Men

In the spring of 2007, Pedro joined the vibrant ensemble of Terrence McNally’s Some Men at Second Stage Theatre in New York City (March 26–April 22, 2007), under the direction of Trip Cullman. The play weaves together a breezy series of sketches about gay American life through eight decades, anchored by a same-sex wedding that bookends the production.

Amid the kaleidoscope of characters and eras, Pedro’s transformative range became a standout feature of the show. He inhabited roles such as Fritz, Mendy, David Goldman, Randy Hunk (Fritz’s AOL screen name), Zach, Lewis, Mel, and Nurse Jack—each figure offering a distinct voice that moved from the jazz-inflected nights of Harlem to the intimacy (and dislocation) of online chat rooms.

Critics praised the ensemble’s energy and the playful shifts in tone. Pedro, in his many guises, grounded McNally’s sweeping thematic journey with moments of clarity and emotional resonance, ensuring that every fleeting character made a lasting impact.

Below is a breakdown of each character Pedro portrayed, along with links to reviews and additional information about the play.
