Bristol Pride 2018 presents an exceptional, moving and poignant piece by Dragonflies Theatre that explores issues that affect the LGBTQ+ community at a time when local HIV services are under increasing pressure.

Part of a double bill of theatre for Bristol Pride 2018, with Drag, Murder She Didn’t Write at 9pm.

Alex knows nothing about HIV. Nick is his Tinder date who’s just been diagnosed positive, struggling with self-worth.

Their date is going amazingly until Nick discloses his diagnosis… And Alex reacts in the worst way. Through meeting Irene, an Irish nurse who treated AIDS in the 1980s, and Barney, who was saved by the 1996 medication, Alex gets on PrEP, but will he be able to win Nick back?

Dragonflies Theatre are dedicated to making challenging and thought provoking work that reflects issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community.
