Riot Act is a solo verbatim show, created entirely, word for word, out of interviews with three key-players in the history of the LGBTQ+ rights movement; a survivor of the Stonewall Riots, an alternative ‘70s drag artist, and a ‘90s London AIDS activist.

Following several UK tours and a special West End performance, this digital ‘reimagining’ of the critically acclaimed audience-favourite, filmed at the beautiful Hackney Empire in London, and also streamed globally via stream.theatre and Broadway On Demand, sits somewhere between a theatre and cinema experience.

A breathtaking, rip-roaring, white-knuckle ride through six decades of queer history, taking the audience right up to the present day; a celebration of queer activism across the decades, pulling no punches, hilarious and inspiring. It’s a riot!
