White Lies
Meet Leo, an earnest, embarrassingly privileged young white man. Desperate to be a socially responsible working actor, his original sin is being born the son of Britain’s most notorious right-wing television personality‌ When Leo lies about his name to join a queer multiracial feminist theatre ensemble, his two worlds collide to hilariously cringeworthy consequences.
