Margaret Thatcher Queen of Soho: Methuen Drama Modern Plays

Autor Jon Brittain, Matt Tedford
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 dec 2013
Look at us, Margaret - the press is on our side. We're heroes: the public is behind us, we're protecting our children, the party is united behind the cause. You can stand against it if you want, but you will stand alone.Margaret Thatcher, Britain's first female Prime Minister, gets lost around the streets of Soho on the eve of the vote for Section 28. Unwittingly, she finds herself quickly becoming a cabaret sensation within London's gay community.This camp political drag cabaret explores, through songs and laughter, homophobia and censorship, and how one person could have made a difference.Margaret Thatcher Queen of Soho received its world premiere at London's Theatre503 in June 2013 as part of the Thatcherwrite Festival, and was revived in a full production there in December 2013.

Recenzii

[This piece provides] both devilish humour and wit, but also thoughtful politicking. Get Margaret Thatcher Queen of Soho to Edinburgh or Brighton soon please.
There has been a lot of advance talk about Jonathan Brittain's play The Wake, which won the Judges' Award for Comedy in last year's National Student Drama Festival. The talk has been worth it - as has the wait, since this is a sizzling piece of comic theatre.
Re-framing her [Thatcher's] key decisions through rainbow-tinted glasses . . . Tedford and Brittain have grasped the fact that gags drive the night
Tedford gets the Thatcheresque head tilt just right
