Canary by Jonathan Harvey
Canary is multi-award winning playwright Jonathan Harvey's long-awaited return to the stage: a deeply moving, funny, unflinching, and often magical story about love, honesty and being brave enough to sing out at the top of your voice - with style.
'It's a heartfelt tribute to lives shattered by homophobia and to the courage of those men.. who fought to change the world.' Clare Brennan, Observer, 02.05.10 'The play is permeated with the character's self-loathing, which drives home the message that we must be true to our feelings, and that those who don't know their history risk their history risk dying by it.' Robert Hewison, Sunday Times, 02.05.10 'There's real poignance and provocation.' Sam Marlwe, The Times, 06.05.10
