'Rich and compassionate'
***** The Scotsman

'A LIVING LEGEND... An inspired occasion... and, in its final segment, lump-in-the-throat moving'
**** The Guardian

Previously in three parts, this award-winning, sell-out show is now presented in a single 90-minute performance.

With honesty, humour and occasional anger, performer Bette Bourne tells the playwright Mark Ravenhill about his life. A London story, it moves from a post-war childhood, to the Gay Liberation Front, life in a drag commune, the creation of the ground breaking Bloolips company and beyond. The piece reveals a portrait of an amazing individual and a celebration of the momentous struggles of gay liberation.

Post-show discussions led by Dr Dominic Johnson (Lecturer in Drama, Queen Mary, University of London):
Saturday 13 February 3pm - Performing Gender with Brian Robinson (Senior Programmer, London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival).
Monday 22 February 7:30pm - Post Liberation.

'This is living, breathing history, naughty bits and all, of the kind you never find in the history books'
**** The Guardian

'Hilarious and touching... Bourne is a priceless repository of mischief and mimicry, honesty, wisdom and defiance'
**** The Times

'Legend, icon - such terms are banded about far too freely, but with Bourne... such terms stick, especially on stage'
**** Daily Telegraph
