Saw Choir Boy at Stratford East Theatre, and was very impressed by the cast and story. Iis written by Tarell Alvin McCraney, the co-author of the award winning film Moonlight. I’d definitely recommend it.
Review: Choir Boy at Stratford East “McCraney strikes the perfect chord, blending human drama with deeper themes and good humour.”

I am quite enthusiastic about “Blueberries.” If you live in or near London, I urgently recommend you come watch the play. More thoughts tomorrow.
