The P Word is Waleed Akhtar's sharp-witted and devastating play charting the parallel lives of two gay Pakistani men as they negotiate everything from casual hook-ups to the UK's hostile environment.

Tender
Dave Harris

The Dancing Bears strip club is failing. Meanwhile, the new club down the street is welcoming fifty women a night with their twelve-inch synchronised dicks. When the boss's daughter shows up, she realises they're gonna need a bigger show.

Steamy and boisterous, Dave Harris's play Tender is a story about breaking free from masculinity's seductive cage. It was first produced by Soho Theatre, London, in 2026, directed by Matthew Xia.

SISTREN
Iolanthe

Isla and Violet are a 'lethal combination'. Their self-righteous headmaster thinks that's an insult. They think it's a cute name for a girl group. But, as their cosmic connection is tested, one key question arises: will Isla and Violet be pulled apart, or will they reign supreme?

Slippery
Louis Emmitt-Stern

3 a.m. in a London flat. Jude and Kyle return from A&E. Jude has slipped, but they're both falling. A decade after their messy breakup, their surprise reunion threatens to undo them both.

Winner of Soho Theatre's Tony Craze Award, Louis Emmitt-Stern's Slippery is a hilarious and heartfelt play for two actors about ghosts, sex and spaghetti.

Based on the true story of Britain's biggest-ever libel suit, Monstering the Rocketman is a probing and provocative exploration of truth, privacy and ambition. Henry Naylor's play premiered to critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2025, where it received a Fringe First Award, before transferring to Arcola Theatre, London, in 2026.

In the 1970s, one enigmatic old lady wielded extraordinary influence, fighting against what she believed was the UK's moral decline. Armed with only a typewriter, this seemingly harmless grandmother took on the BBC and the 'godless media' in a culture war that divided the nation.

Inspired by real events, Caroline Bird's wickedly funny play delves into Whitehouse's most explosive battle – her infamous blasphemy trial against Gay News – and explores her formidable…

Born With Teeth
Liz Duffy Adams

Christopher Marlowe – rockstar of Elizabethan theatre and notorious spy for the Crown – danger and seduction combined. William Shakespeare – jobbing actor and promising young playwright – dazzled by Marlowe, but with ambitions of his own.

When the pair meet in the backroom of a pub to collaborate on a cycle of history plays, tensions rise as they navigate the perils of art under an oppressive regime, and flirt like young men with everything to…

Dear Young Monster
Pete MacHale

A young trans man, struggling as he begins his medical transition, drops out of university and retreats to his quiet hometown. His friends are gone. The neighbours are watching. His body is changing faster than he can make sense of it... until a midnight screening of Frankenstein offers him a strange kind of salvation.

Staring into the monster's big, dead, sad eyes, something finally clicks: for the first time, he feels seen.

Vivid, witty and humane, Dear Young…

Green Park
Elias Jamieson Brown

Green Park, picturesque by day, a little eerie by night. It’s where Warren and Edden are meeting, as a prelude to their Grindr hook up. One of them doesn't look like his photo. There's an age gap between them (but what's a decade or three?). And one is harbouring a dangerous secret. In an hour's time, both will leave the park profoundly transformed.

Four Play
Jake Brunger

Rafe and Pete have the kind of relationship people envy. Seven years strong, perfectly in sync… except for one little thing. Neither of them has ever been with anyone else. So, when they hatch a plan to scratch their proverbial itch, who better than mutual friend Michael?

After all, Michael does this… right? And his partner Andy knows… right?

What begins as an intellectual experiment in sexual exploration quickly escalates into a chaotic web of emotional…
