"You can''t teach someone to be gay Val, it''s just a discussion. They''re not promoting anything."
In 1988, 14-year-old Michael comes out as gay. Later he returns as a teacher. In the background: the notorious Section 28 of Thatcher''s Local Government Act, which prohibited schools from "promoting homosexuality". The narrative of the play spans from 1988 to 2003 and explores what it means to be gay then and now.
