Double Bill: Tell Me Straight & Aggy May
Following a critically acclaimed run at the Park Theatre, Paul Bradshaw returns to the Kings Head with a double bill of tell me straight and aggy, with design by Olivier nominated Damien Stanton, lighting by OFFIE winner Cheng Keng, sound by BBTA winner Eamonn O'Dwyer & video by Stage Award shortlisted Matt Powell.
Starring Bradshaw, ‘tell me straight' is a fast paced, semi-autobiographical, coming-of-adulthood play that's a glorious, witty, and provocative exploration of what it means to navigate and embrace our sexuality.
Him's long line of hookups have one thing in common; they're all straight. Best friend Dani thinks he needs to fix up and finally find ‘a gay man who actually likes gay men!' But straight guys are like buses…

‘aggy' is a bold one-act play exploring privilege, gender, race and creativity. It's about art and who gets to make it. The play unflinchingly examines how people freely police one another, and how this can lead to destruction.

After a particularly tough rejection, Mahlik makes a risky suggestion for Lawrence's next project - that he presents as an alter ego to secure more opportunities. As success starts to roll in, this fabricated persona leaves the couple facing uncomfortable truths neither of them can ignore
