Details

Mark Howard moves away from his childhood home to a rural, upstate town in search of a new type of family. When he picks up a stockroom position at the town's local orchard, he's met with toxic masculinity and comes to terms with his newfound male privilege. During his first day at work, he befriends Dani Thompson, a Black queer woman who is opening her own gay bar. Over time, these two very regular people form and find chosen family in one another and their community. With a passionate score and a familiar story, ‘The Regulars' is a captivating original musical about identity and self-love, reminding us that despite our differences, we are all deserving of acceptance for who we are. ope Mill Theatre will be collaborating with Trans Creative to double bill ‘The Regulars' alongside new Trans writing. Trans Social Club, a space for trans and non binary people and allies to come together, socialise and share work in a safe trans friendly space to tell our own stories, will showcase new writing by some of the Northwest's best trans artists along with up-and-coming new talent.
