📣📣📣 Theatre Club MDX: Next session on 24 November 2022, 6-7pm: Do You Really Want to Hurt Me? by Ben SantaMaria for Flaming Theatre
Devon, 1984. Constant pressure to be straight and masculine makes a schoolboy feel like he’s living in Orwell’s "1984". School bullies. Teenage heartache. Hating yourself. Trying to tape the Top 40 off the radio without the DJ talking over the songs. Dancing defiantly to your Walkman to stay alive.
This hit dark comedy with dance sequences speaks directly to the experiences of LGBTQ+ people of all generations.
Written and directed by Ben Santamaria
Performed by by Ryan Price.
Age guidance: 14+
Content warning: Discussion of suicidal thoughts and homophobic bullying.
Theatre Club MDX is an online theatre club for young audiences (16+), run like a book club. We watch a piece of (free) digital theatre in our own time and then meet up online to discuss what we’ve seen. The event is public-facing, so please feel free to share
this with anyone who might be interested in joining.

To register for the event please go to https://theatreclubmdx.eventbrite.co.uk
