We are really looking forward to seeing a new take on age, dating and sexuality when Only Grans comes back to Brighton Fringe this year after it’s sell-out run last year.
OnlyGrans is both a raucous one-woman show and a direct call-out of the patriarchal and homophobic system we live in. Having been described as “a clown’s take on sexuality” this alt comedy play follows 82-year old Geri’s exploration of love, sexuality and friendship. As she transforms from a parochial homophobe into the host of her very own coming out party; celebrating sexual liberation and queer identity. It’s a story of the toxicity and bigotry that can come from having to suppress your own sexuality and identity.
Performed by Nathalie Fenwick, a Greek/Australian actress with an impressive track record, this show promises to extend our view of what an older person might want to do, feel and experience, all told in a joyous and risky way. We can’t wait to see what she has to say this year.
