The Fuck, Theatre Review. Queertet, Unity Theatre, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Liam Murphy, Gerard McLaughlin

The pick-up, the slow manoeuvring of time and physical introduction as two sets of eyes meet is a story the world over, sometimes though the need for something beyond the carefree social abandon takes the requirements of dating out of the hands of the participants and into the realm of the arena. Not so much making love on the first date but the greeting of a Spanish crowd to their hero decked in national regalia and the snorting, steam driven worship of a single moment in which The Fuck is all but consuming.

Bye, Theatre Review. Queertet, Unity Theatre, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Cast: Nic Hardman, Mary Jayne, James Bray.

It has perhaps arguably long been a topic of conversation between people who find the subject of other people’s love lives and sexual experiences a thrilling and endless game to while away the time, on just how can a person fancy or fall in love with a two people from the opposite genders; the sniggering and the elbow nudging a distraction and deflection to the point which is that human beings are animals and attraction is not based solely on which side of the cup you like to drink out of at all times. For some it even comes down to a choice between friends and which one they may have to say Bye to when the fall out of choice rears its ugly head.

Break ups are never easy, they don’t actually even just entail the two people going through the process, family aside, it effects a wide circle of friends and close personal attachments to the point where some people breaking up demand that you take sides in a fit of ownership. Whilst others feel as though they have no choice but to make a complete break of the whole situation; to the point where starting with nothing is preferable to looks of disappointment and heartbreak.

Pulse, Theatre Review. Queertet, Unity Theatre, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Cast: Paul Pope, Andie Egan Jr., David Allen.

The spirit and ethos Grin Theatre’s much talked about Queertet production of four short plays can be seen in this year’s opening production; that of John Maines’ Pulse. The spirit that lives in the Liverpool LGBT community, the feeling of acceptance and recognition is highlighted by the fun and the outrageous, the touch of the mystery and the overall entertaining that plays such as Pulse provide.
