The X

Work:: The X (S1639685374)

R loves X... J wants R... F adores J... E longs for F... How can anyone live within the constraints of a society that can at best misunderstand them, at worst, only condemn? One of the first plays to depict lesbianism on Broadway, Edouard Bourdet's La Prisonniere ignited a scandal in 1927, prompting new laws against obscenity and the arrest of the entire company.

Production:: (T02037986137)

Now, 90 years on, Arcola Queer Collective presents a radical reimagining of this landmark play following their sold-out productions of A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Little Prince.
