Grey and Gay


A tale of breasts, lesbians, wool, etc.

An ordinary woman in extraordinary circumstances.

Dear Leonard present a story about a woman called Ellen and her journey through life from the monotonous and repressive to the exciting and unexpected.

Explored through our eyes, this performance will take the audience on a journey through the life of a woman whose story might not otherwise be told through the use of game and play.

A story you don't want to miss, for it might not ever be repeated.

Monday 3rd December
6.30pm at the Lumley, University of Kent*

Tickets £3 available from Jarman Reception, University of Kent

*If you wish to reserve tickets please contact dearleonard.theatre@gmail.com and state your name and the number of tickets you wish to reserve.

Let the hectic times begin...!

Greetings to you all...

So you might have noticed it has been a little while since we posted last and that is because we have had a very hectic past couple of weeks and this is sure to continue! But it is all getting very exciting!

The first thing to report is that we had our very first (private) performance two weeks ago which was a work in progress display of what we had developed so far...

The feedback we got for this was all incredibly helpful and has really helped us to step up to get ready for our final performance which will be on the 3rd Dec at 6.30pm in The Lumley, University of Kent. This will be a ticketed event so details will soon be emerging for how to get your hands on them! You will also soon be seeing our brand new posters floating around for our final performance and we can't wait for you to see them!

So first things first, we know you all love a nice little glimpse into our rehearsal process, so here are some of the photos from just before our work in progress (and we will also soon upload some of our actual work in progress photos up too!):















It was such an enjoyable experience and we were really pleased with the results but we still have a long way to go!

Speaking of which our performance has now developed quite significantly from this earlier work and we are now beginning to focus on a much more specific story that we hope you will all be very intrigued by! We are currently using the basis of a unique and ahead of her time woman for our performance whose story we think might otherwise not be told... More details of this brilliant new theme will be emerging shortly when our publicity starts to hit the streets for our final performance! Until then though, we hope this will intrigue you!

And so it is with that we shall leave you, but a new blog post will definitely be up pretty soon to give you all the information you need to know about how to see us perform!

Live long and prosper guys...
