Plots(1)
One pub, eight queer characters portrayed by such stars as Alan Cumming and Russell Tovey, eight stories about what it meant to be queer and live in Britain. A mere half-century ago, homosexuality was a criminal offence here, and these inspiring, funny monologues with amazing punch lines were made to commemorate a milestone in Europe's queer history – the decriminalization of homosexuality in England and Wales.
