Best known for X-Men Origins: Wolverine and Dance Academy, Tim Pocock’s most powerful role has been off-screen – finding the courage to live as his true self.
In this raw and deeply personal event, Tim shares the story behind his memoir The Truth Will Set You Free: Growing Up Gay in Opus Dei. Raised in a conservative Catholic family, educated at a school affiliated with Opus Dei, and subjected to gay conversion therapy, Tim was forced to live as a devout, “straight” son.
With heartfelt honesty, he recounts his journey from silence and shame to liberation and healing. From the bright lights of Hollywood to the complexities of the gay dating scene, Tim’s story reveals the strength it takes to live openly and proudly.
Join us for an unforgettable evening that celebrates why your truth is worth fighting for.
