It's 1986 and Edward, a young gay man, is on his way to the bright lights of Bournemouth. He's run away from home, hoping to find a new start, but the shadow of AIDS is already taking hold of the LGBT+ community in Bournemouth and beyond.
AUB students unearth and celebrate the history of Bournemouth's LGBT+ community in this brand-new play. Exploring this too often forgotten part of history, and celebrating the LGBT+ community.
Did you know? AIDS' patient zero in the UK was recently discovered to be from Bournemouth. He was a well-loved man who ran a guest house in Bournemouth.
