As part of the play’s development we invited local residents to a reading of A Roaring Boy. Their feedback was incredibly helpful and extremely kind. Here’s a little sample of what they had to say…

“A really captivating story set in a fascinating time in history, full of unexpected twists and turns. It paints such a vivid picture of London back then and draws you right into an exciting, eventful life story.”

“The picture painted of the setting & Rob’s character are so vivacious that you are drawn in & taken along emotionally with all the turns of fortune.”

“It tackles questions of gender and sexuality in a way that feels honest and natural, not preachy or forced.”

“I loved the richness of the descriptions of London and the world unfurling around the characters. It felt very engaging, as if you were right there in the story alongside them.”

“The script worked so well. The central themes of queerness and found family were so well represented!”
