Description

Dungeness is a play about love, commemoration and protest, written fifty years after the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in England. It explores the struggles and joys of being gay, and how to take action when you're not ready to be visible. The story takes place in a safe house for LGBT+ young people, where self-appointed group leader Birdie must navigate the challenges of keeping the peace among a diverse group. The play raises important questions about identity, community and activism. This new edition features a Q&A with the author, alongside teaching resources and information from Stonewall Housing, a charity that works to ensure lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people live in safer homes.
