Two monologues
I Miss the War
by Matthew Baldwin
and
Oh!
by David John Phillips
- London, England. During the week that sodomy is decriminalized in the UK, Jack Edwards, tailor to the chorus boys of the West End, remembers his illicit past and hopes that today’s youth can be as happy as he has been.
- Toronto, Canada. During Kink Night at the local almost-leather bar, Matt Laughlin, a service bottom with failing knees, wonders what it is to be a queer elder in a world that seems both eerily constant and totally foreign.
Recalling hankies and Polari, busbies and chaps, rent boys and faeries, tea rooms and back rooms, love and death, they each bring the past to the present and celebrate the future.
A hundred years of queer history in 55 minutes.
