GAY AND NONBARY PERFORMERS SWEEP THE TONY AWARDS
<p><strong>Michael Billgton: </strong>The gay and lbian theatre movement has changed radilly sce the opprsive days of the 1950s, but uld more wrers rise to the challenge of ntemporary issu?</p> * theatre gay term *
Queer theatre is the accepted generic term for the gay theatre movement: one that embrac both men and women, that vers plays, mils, baret and jt about everythg else, and which has been gog strong Bra and Ameri for well over 40 years. In the opprsive 1950s, where every play had to be approved by the lord chamberla before uld be performed public, Brish dramatists were necsarily oblique their prentatn of gay issu.
But dramatists at the time were obliged to work : when the hero of Emlyn Williams's superlative Acla (1950) is acced of havg sex wh an unrage girl Rotherhhe, I tomatilly assume Williams was really talkg about 's been hearteng to see gay wrers explog the eedom that me wh the aboln of censorship and the relaxatn of the law.
The 1970s saw the emergence of Gay Sweatshop Bra, found 1975, and the Gay Theatre Alliance Ameri, which burst to life not long after. And Bra over the last 20 years wrers such as Bryony Lavery, Phyllis Nagy (who is Amerin by birth), Kev Elyot, Alexi Kaye Campbell, Samuel Adamson, Mark Ravenhill and many others have all alt openly and explicly wh gay what is there to pla about an era when plays cludg Ravenhill's Mother Clap's Molly Hoe and Alan Bent's The Hab of Art occupy the stag of London's Natnal Theatre, when mils such as La Cage x Foll be prof wh preachg sexual tolerance and when specialised ftivals, offerg gay plays to primarily gay dienc, ntue to thrive?
QUEERLY MIL; WHY THE GAYS LOVE MIL THEATRE

It's also a ltle-noticed fact that when Gregory Doran assum ntrol of the Royal Shakpeare Company 2013 two of our big natnal pani will, for the first time ever, be n by gay I would like to see, however, are more plays on the Khner-Ravenhill mol which al wh sexualy a wir polil ntext.
More recently, Alexi Kaye Campbell's The Fah Mache (2011) aired the heated divisns the Anglin church towards homosexualy. And I'd have thought the ranro schism between old and young Tori towards gay marriage would be a rich subject for drama. Novelists om Jam Baldw to Alan Hollghurst and Philip Hensher have shown that gay wrers are as well-placed as anyone to plot the urse of polil and cultural change.
DUMBLEDORE IS SO GAY!
Gay schoolboy and huge Harry Potter fan Jack is rigned to havg a Hufflepuff type of life, but dreams of changg his story, beg sorted to Gryffdor and g * theatre gay term *
I jt wish more gay dramatists would rise to the challenge, so eagerly grasped by fictn wrers, of relatg personal dilemmas to public read: Not In Front of the Audience: homosexualy on stage by Nicholas Jongh (2002) Le of Bety by Alan Hollghurst (2004), for the nnectn mak between sexualy and the state of the natn. Wh words like "sha, " "tea, " and "kiki" proment queer culture, sometim feels like 's impossible for straights to unrstand gays...
GAYS, GOD, AND THEATER

But once upon a time, that was exactly what Brish gays wanted. Called Polari, the gay slang is posed of back slang, circ slang, and broken Yiddish and Italian. The "secret language" was ed heavily by gays the circ, navy, and theater, and arose out of the need to discs gay matters unr a clever guise, due to homosexual acts beg illegal Bra until the passage of the Sexual Offens Act 1967.
Here's some of the amg slang: Basket - the bulge of male genals through clothFantabulos-wonrfulEf - face (backslang) DollyEf - pretty face Chicken - a young guySome Polari words still exist morn gay slang. As gays began to fight for acceptance and rights, they ma a ncentrated effort to remove the Brish society's one-dimensnal view of all gays as beg overly mpy and effemate. Check out Atlas Obscura pots out, Polari was a great self-performative outlet for Brish gays to not only exprs themselv but also easily intify and n wh fellow memebers of the queer muny.
