We want to put ‘a Trans audience.’ But what is that? What does it look like? And, given how rare trans narratives, trans perspectives, and trans bodies still are on stages of every size in the UK, we have to wonder – does it even exist?
Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience.

Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
