Second Class Queer

Second Class Queer

Second Class Queer

A bold, witty and moving autobiographical solo performance exploring queer identity, diaspora, racial injustice and the search for belonging. Krishna, a queer Indian-Malaysian man, attends a gay speed-dating event in Berlin. Through five-minute conversations, his regret and grief at never coming out to his late mother emerge. With raw storytelling, multimedia projection and poetic honesty, the piece weaves together personal memories, political insight and humour to challenge dominant narratives and celebrate the voices of the marginalised. It speaks to anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, because of their skin, sexuality, culture or class.

‘Once in a while you see something that takes your breath away, something so perfectly formed and delivered that you would happily see it again and again… Second Class Queer made me laugh… and cry. It made me feel guilt and shame, it made me feel uncomfortable and then proud. It made me want to be a better man and it made me want to see this important piece of theatre be shown to young people and old, worldwide’ Andrew Kay, TheLatest.co.uk
