Michaelmas Week 8
‘How does it feel?’ is back - with more performances, more performers and more stories than ever before.
In case you’d forgotten (but how could you forget?), ‘How does it feel?’ presents an hour of perspectives that are not often heard. The show will be an hour of pieces written and performed by LGBTQ+ people, foregrounding voices often under-represented or not widely known. It promises to be warm, funny, informative, emotional, fresh and -- most of all -- honest.
From stand-up and sketch comedy to personal stories, naturalism to absurdity, the show will be a space for people to express themselves in their own terms. We hope you come away laughing, thinking and feeling in ways you might not have expected.
