Diary of a Gay Disaster
10 Jun
When Ellis moves in with Mia and Finlay – flatmates she found on the internet – she finds herself bonding with them a lot faster than she expected when they discover her teenage diary and insist on making a very long (and very gay) night out of reading it.
Exploring the overwhelmingly confusing – and hilarious – experiences that come with navigating queer life as a young adult, Diary of a Gay Disaster is a new musical comedy where three queer women get to grips with their gay panic the only way they know how: singing, and a lot of shots.
