Directed by Laila Noble | Cast - Bea Webster, Ciaran Stewart
A deaf queer comedy about finding love in a hopeless place…with dragons!
Finn is here, queer, but not very used to it. At some point, between flying the pride flag and learning all the words to ‘Born This Way’ he forgot to fall in love, have his first kiss or…well, anything.
When best friend, and resident dungeon master, Wiley discovers Finn’s woefully unexplored waters they hatch a plan – a quest to find love, or failing that, maybe just a quick fumble around the back of the dragon’s lair.
Dungeons, Dragons, and the Quest for D*** will be a Sign Integrated Performance with captions.
If you are d/Deaf or hard-of-hearing and would like to sit at the front for this performance, please email info@playpiepint.com and we will reserve seats for you.
Co-presented with Macrobert Arts Centre.
