Theatre: London Gets Hilarious “Lesbian Space crime”

Lesbian Space Crime

“In a vast cosmos where anything is possible…everything is gay.” These are the wise words of the creators behind Soho Theatre’s latest hit, Lesbian Space Crime. The musical space odyssey stays true to its name, bringing lesbianism, campness and witty innuendo in this absolutely delightful satirical comedy. Co-created by Eleanor Colville, Robbie Taylor Hunt and Rosanna Suppa, Lesbian Space Crime follows astronaut Sue Albright who is ready to make history in the first all-female space walk.

THEATER: Dumbledore is So Gay (Streaming)

Dumbledore is So Gay

If you could revisit your own childhood, what would you change? For those whose past is buried under layers of homophobia, the answer is endless. This question is at the heart of Robert Holton’s play Dumbledore is So Gay, a coming-of-age time travel tale starring Alex Britt as Jack, a young Potterhead who’s discovering his sexuality when Dumbledore’s becomes a national talking point. The play opens on 12-year-old Jack in French class, his life rooted in a reality many of us will recognise: the word “gay” used as a thoughtless insult, the parents who refuse to watch Graham Norton on … Read more

THEATER: Russell Tovey Stars in London Queer Alternate Realities Play “Constellations”

Russell Tovey & Omari Douglas in Constellations

Russell Tovey and Omari Douglas shine bright in the inventive, queer Constellations. For every path we choose in life, there is another untrodden by us that exists as a a parallel reality. In one existence, you scoff as a friend of a friend drops a horrendously cheesy chat up line. In an alternate life, it leads you to a torrid affair. In another, marriage. And so on, and so on. That’s the basic premise of Constellations. On paper it sounds fairly high concept, but in practice it’s a clever little rom-com full of laughter, soul-searching and heart – more Sliding … Read more

INTERVIEW: Briandaniel Oglesby

Brian Oglesby interview

I met Briandaniel a few weeks ago at the annual Playwrights Revolution – a staged reading of four plays that Sacamento’s Capital Stage puts on every summer. Brian’s play “Basement Demons and Trailer Saints” stood out, not just because of the stellar cast of actors who put it on in less than a day, but for the fascinating writing and super-LGBTQ+ group of characters he’d created. So afterwards I screwed up my courage and went to talk to him, hopeful that I could get him to do an interview for QSF (which I will also share on my own blog). … Read more

THEATER: Outland (Melbourne)

Outland

FROM the glittering mirror ball that flamboyant Melbourne DJ Adam Richard uses for a brain (with writer John Richards) comes Outland, an outrageous six-part comedy about a gay science-fiction fan club. Richard plays the very camp Fab as someone we all know (probably a 15-year-old girl) in an original comic creation as broad and irreverent as Matt Lucas’s Vicky Pollard. Toby Truslove (Laid) plays the more down-to-earth but highly anxious Max, who heads home with a hot date, only to be visited by the entire fan club. Fab, presented as a kind of sci-fi monster himself (thanks to the soundtrack), … Read more
