FROM BUGGERY TO BLASPHEMY: GAY NEWS REVISITED
Relive the grandeur that was Gay News with two of the legendary newspaper’s key staff members. Together, photographer Bob Workman and journalist Keith Howes explored London and much of Britain, pushing open the closet door and shining light into the darkness of the dangerously exhilarating queer world of the 70s and early 80s. Join Bob and Keith for an unmissable evening of grit, glamour and gossip, flowing with stunning images and candid anecdotes to recreate the pair’s unique contribution to building community, as well as close encounters with people like Rudolf Nureyev, Divine, Simon Callow, Andy Warhol and Dame Edna Everage.
