What's My Son's A Queer (But What Can You Do?) about?
Social media star Rob Madge is returning to the London stage with an autobiographical show.
Following sold-out performances at the Turbine Theatre, Edinburgh Festival, Garrick Theatre and Ambassadors Theatre, the musical My Son's a Queer (But What Can You Do?) is coming to London's Apollo Theatre.
This joyful, chaotic show recounts the ups and downs of growing up gay in the London suburbs. My Son’s A Queer (But What Can You Do?) focuses on a pivotal moment in young Rob Madge’s life: when, at age 12, he set out to stage a Disney parade with his father’s help.
Despite nothing going according to plan, Rob Madge’s grandmother ends up having one of the best afternoons of her life. The show is directed by Luke Sheppard (& Juliet, In the Heights), with music by Pippa Cleary and Simon Nathan.
