Joyfully Grimm: Reimagining a Queer Adolescence
Advertisement
1988. One boy is growing up in myth and magic unaware that Section 28, prohibiting the 'promotion of homosexuality', is moving to silence his tale and those of anyone like him.
Combining traditional fairy tales and original poetry, storyteller James Stedman (helped by a grumpy frog) guides you through a heartfelt, slightly irreverent look at our history.
LGBTQIA+ people have always joyfully existed, in story as in life, and the fabulous do eventually win out. Directed by Molly Naylor. Originally commissioned for the Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2023.
'Uplifting and enlightening' **** (TheQR.co.uk).
