An Adequate Abridgement of Boarding School Life as a Homo

"Meet Johnny. 18-years-old and in his final year at an all-boys boarding school. A member of the 7ths rugby team, Britney Spears mega fan and a flaming homosexual, Johnny fails miserably to fit into the school's (rather rigid) mould. 

Enter Harry, the confident, charming and really fit 1st team rugby captain. To save a lot of time and trepidation, Johnny and Harry shag... they shag all the time. 

An Adequate Abridgement of Boarding School Life as a Homo follows Johnny as he ambles through daily life, from awkward PSHE lessons, Grindr rendezvous and hook ups in the English block loos. This isn't a coming out story, or a gay tragedy. It is life through the lens of a young queer man, stuck in an institution rife with hyper masculinity and shame. 

This play serves as a reminder that amidst gay narratives, there is a heart that beats and breaks just like the rest."
