The show runs for 60 minutes and carries significant content warnings including nudity, scenes of a sexual nature, strong language and distressing themes. Age guidance is 14 and over. Tickets are £15.
Why see this show?
Darkly funny and genuinely surprising, this takes a notorious real-world crime and reframes it through a queer lens with unexpected warmth. Brave material handled with real craft — not for the faint-hearted, but rewarding for the adventurous.
