Detention: Community Cast Taster Session

Part of Queer Fest 2025

Free, registration required

Join the cast of Gary Clarke Company's new theatrical production, Detention

Gary Clarke Company is looking for five members of the local LGBT+ community, aged 40+, to join their exceptional cast of performers live on stage. A fantastic opportunity to make a unique contribution to this story of Section 28 and the LGBT+ community's fight for justice.

Detention is the eagerly anticipated new touring show from choreographer Gary Clarke, following the multi-award winning Coal and critically acclaimed Wasteland, exploring the controversial 1988 UK Local Government Act known as Section 28 and the devastating impact it had on LGBT+ communities nationwide.

This session will be led by Gary Clarke and will be an opportunity to hear more about the role and to try out some ideas from the show. If you’d like to register for the free taster session or have any questions, please get in touch with Laura Barber, Engagement Manager at the Gary Clarke Company.
