FutureQueer

A funny, hard-hitting, provocative & very queer romp through an imagined LGBTQ+ future

This show is part of Queer Futures. Explore the season & find out more here!
 


'Ooh, it's so good, it's so good
It's so good, it's so good, it's so good
Ooh, I feel love, I feel love I feel love,
I feel love, I feel love'.


It’s 2069....and the whole world is queer.

Voguing and lip syncing are categories in the Olympics.

There is a statue of George Michael on Hampstead Heath.

And Starbucks own Pride (boo!).

Forty-six years ago, in 1977, setting out to create the sound of the future, Donna Summer recorded queer anthem I Feel Love. But what will life REALLY be like for queer people in 2069, forty-six years from now?

Armed with a vintage Donna Summer vinyl, playwright and performer Alexis Gregory decides to find out.

FutureQueer is part speculative queer excavation, pop-culture commentary, and meditation on disco music as a metaphor for queer survival. Basically this show is camp as f*ck. It’s also funny, moving, hard hitting, irreverent, and provocative.
 

Alexis’s previous work includes Riot Act (King's Head Theatre, West End, Tour, Digital Adaptation) and Sex/Crime (Soho Theatre, The Glory).



Praise for Alexis previous work:

'Frank, warm and uninhibited' Evening Standard

'Queer theatre doesn’t get more essential' Metro

'This stand out piece of theatre will become part of LGBT cultural heritage… A career defining performance' Attitude

'Articulate, lethal sense of comic timing' ★★★★★ The Stage

'The writing possesses a beautiful rhythmic lyricism. The text is shocking but at the same time feels realistic… Dark, mysterious, sexy, engaging, genuinely unique' ★★★★ Broadway World
