Quentin Crisp: Naked Hope: Northern Stage

Presented as part of the Newcastle Pride Festival 2018, catch Mark Farrelly’s Quentin Crisp: Naked Hope on Tuesday 10th July 2018 at Northern Stage.

“Discover who you are. And be it – like mad” is the motto in this memorable piece of theatre, telling the tale of Quentin Crisp, one of the most remarkable figures of the twentieth century. He was openly gay in the 1930s and was routinely beaten on London’s streets for decades, but soon became an international treasure for his uplifting ability to just be his true self!

This production, directed by Linda Marlowe, shows Quentin in his beloved Chelsea flat in the 60s, as well as in his adopted New York home in the millennium. A glorious celebration of the urgent necessity to be yourself - a truly inspiring show for your do-this diaries!
