The P Word
About Hailed as “tremendous” (The Times) and “immensely moving” (Financial Times), the enduringly relevant story of a romance blossoming against all odds broke Box Office records in 2022, and now returns with its original cast and creative team. ‘I’m not in your Britain. I’m in another Britain.’ Zafar flees homophobic persecution in Pakistan to seek asylum in the UK. Londoner Bilal (self-styled as ‘Billy’) is ground down by years of Grindr and the complexity of being a brown gay man. Their worlds are about to change forever. Moving through casual hook-ups to the UK’s hostile environment, Waleed Akhtar ’s sharp-witted and devastating play charts the parallel lives of two gay Pakistani men. Directed by Theatre503 Artistic Director Anthony Simpson-Pike . Original cast members Esh Alladi ( Bridgerton ) and Waleed Akhtar ( The Great ) return. We are proud to be working with our charity partners Micro Rainbow , the leading UK social enterprise helping LGBTQI people fleeing persecution, and ice&fire , organisers of Queer Migrant Pride Fest and Actors for Human Rights, on this production.
