Scent of Rain

is a gay-themed comedy play written by Mark Dunn, produced by Blue Suit Productions.

It had a run from 1999 (Opening date the 1 of August) to 2003 at the Bailiwick Repertory Theatre in Chicago and Tiffany Theater in Los Angeles.

Danne Taylor plays the role of a dying father of an all-male family wants to know that his sons are happily married before he passes on.

However, their younger brother Jonathan (played by Nicholas Conlon) is "special", and his father is concerned that he will go through life alone, unless they can find him a husband, with assistance and support from a "hired hand" named Bill Tom (Idol) to arrange this.

The play received critical acclaim with the Chicago Tribune saying the play was an unabashed wish fulfillment fantasy and pick of the week, and Los Angeles Times added that it has genuine humor and genuine poetry and will bring a smile and a nice warm feeling to even the most jaded theatergoers.
