ROBINSON DRAMATISTS LEAD THE WAY

Phoebe Deller’s (Classics, 2021) play Queer Street was staged at Corpus Playroom in June, the first of hers to be performed in a professional theatre. Phoebe said, “I wrote this play for reasons other than myself – I pitched it to the ADC as a play about LGBT themes where no-one is the victim of a hate crime, dies of AIDS, or is kicked out by unsupportive parents. It is so important that queer people get silly trashy romcoms because so many of our love stories in the media end in tragedy.” Phoebe also remarked, “I’ve loved doing QS. It’s changed my life. I love our cast and crew and I’m so proud of them –and I’m thrilled with the way the audience has responded.”

Congratulations to Phoebe and the crew!
