Description
Riot Act is a powerful brand-new verbatim theatre piece created especially for the King s Head Theatre Queer Season.
You know what s strange, I felt safer on the night of the riots, on the sidewalk in front of Stonewall, than I did in my own hometown.
I m a drag queen. I want to live. I want to survive. As an older person, I m sixty-five now, I couldn t give a f cking shit.
In London, the idea of safe sex was: don t sleep with Americans. James was older; a mature student. He was twenty-two years old when he died.
Playwright and performer Alexis Gregory interviewed one of the only remaining Stonewall survivors, a radical drag icon from 1970s London and a 1990s London ACT UP AIDS activist. This solo theatre piece channels six decades of queer history. Hard-hitting, provocative, tender, truthful, funny, political and personal, these are stories of queerness, activism, addiction, sex, drag, community, conflict, youth, ageing, fierce queens and a Hollywood diva.
