A Starving Artists Production
A gay man wanders through Soho, thinking over the losses and triumphs of the past 50 years of gay experience. There, right across the street, he spots a young motorcyclist parking his bike…and is impelled to cross the road and introduce himself…
Both hilarious and deeply moving, this celebration of LGBTQ history blends solo theatre with stand-up to glorious effect.
Let Me Look At You is the newest performance piece from award-winning Starving Artists Productions, UK.

ABOUT
From the acclaimed International touring company Starving Artists. Double Fringe First winners and both The Stage & Manchester Evening News Best Actor Award.
Let Me Look At You is the newest performance piece from award-winning Starving Artists Theatre Company. Hilarious and touching. Stand-up meets solo theatre in this personal story from the gay “movement”. Grounded in history and battered by camp, a fifty-something gay man shares his misadventures while quietly having a nervous breakdown himself. On the fiftieth anniversary of the U.K.’s Sexual Offenses Act, Starving Artists offers up the oft-ignored warning: things haven’t changed all that much.
“It’s not the homosexuals but the gays I can’t stand”
