Description:
1988. One boy is growing up in myth and magic unaware that Section 28, prohibiting the 'promotion of homosexuality', is moving to silence his tale and those of anyone like him.

LGBTQIA+ people have always joyfully existed, in story as in life, and the fabulous do eventually win out. Directed by Molly Naylor. Originally commissioned for the Scottish International Storytelling Festival 2023. 'Uplifting and enlightening' **** (TheQR.co.uk).
