“The Tory Party is the gayest party, by about a country mile”
Sam is northern, gay and a Conservative. As a parliamentary researcher he is struggling to reconcile his private sexual identity with his public political life, whilst his supercilious boss, a persistent lover, a gang of GSCE schoolchildren and the memory of past PM Edward Heath constantly play on his mind… From the acclaimed writer of the National Theatre’s ‘This House’, comes a sharp and witty political comedy of private party politics, careerism versus idealism and the processes of change and acceptance.
“…it’s not who you are, it’s what you do. You should hold on to that”.
