Fame! Oh, that theme tune, that star-jump cry from my youth. When I was ten years old the TV show of Fame won my heart. It won my soul. I waited avidly for every episode and sat rapt in front of the telly. I wanted to go to that goddamn School of Performing Arts so […]

Queer theatre is having something of a magnificent renaissance in London at the moment with works by Nando Messias, Dickie Beau, Scottee, and Le John Joseph, (amongst many others) doing the rounds and leaving audiences moved, in awe, and talking about our queer lives. So, Loverboy’s art critic Fallon Gold was super excited to hear […]

Celeste Dring is a comedian and Sue Gives A Fuk is a drag queen. Fed up of the very straight, very white, very male environment of the comedy circuit, Sue and Celeste have created Play Date, a queer comedy night at The Glory in London. Fallon Gold spoke to Sue about the night and why […]

A key to the current scene is community and collaboration. There are players out there who are in multiple bands and stages are […]

Loverboy has teamed up with the Toronto’s drag queen supreme and talented illustrator, Justin Gray, for a strictly limited edition tee based on our very first cover. Yes there are only 50 of these and, as the saying goes, once they’re gone – they’re gone. If you’re feeling in need of a festive moment then this […]

Very queer things are going on at The National Theatre… Fallon Gold gets all Brechtian on our asses and checks out one of her favourite plays.  I came to this with big expectations. As an aspiring ac-tor I studied Brecht for A level and got hooked. As an adult I discovered Kurt Weill (and Lotte […]
