ored of the heatwave? A more cerebral way to spend a hopefully balmy August is to swing by the 13th annual theatre-fest, this year with themes of #MeToo, LGBTQ and mental health at the forefront, reflecting on what the organisers call “a ground-breaking year of social and political change for the UK”.
The festival takes place at over twenty venues – usual suspects include Camden People’s Theatre, The Lion and Unicorn, Etcetera and The Bill Murray – with over 200 shows taking place throughout the month.
This year’s eclectic line-up includes a vogue-infused dance celebration of the sexual and gender diversity within the queer community in Alternative Diary Selection (24-25th Aug). Meanwhile, a Tinder Trilogy explores the tales of intimacy, loneliness and frustration rife in our swipe-right generation (4th-7th Aug).

Oh and the London Gay Men’s Choir will be bringing, yep you guessed it, Song of Gays (12th Aug). We did say it was an eclectic programme, eh?
