Dorothy and Her Very Many Friends

1 Phoenix St, London, WC2H 8BU

Description

In 1980s America, the Naval Investigative Service are intensively hunting down and discharging gay sailors in the US Navy at an unprecedented rate. But their war on homosexuality is not yet over, because the gays have a secret weapon, someone who is somehow friends with every single one of them: Dorothy.

Who is Dorothy? What does Dorothy want? Can she bring down the entire Navy, and perhaps the country, too? Only one man, with a predictable secret of his own, can stop her.

Powered by an 80s synth pop score, ‘Dorothy and Her Very Many Friends’ is a surreal, dark musical comedy rooted inspired by a lesser-known chapter of queer history.
