This is unbelievable - it is called "terfs stop being transphobic challenge"

I find it hard to believe after everything that has gone on in the last year that they thought it ok to publish. Fine is someone wants to voice those thoughts in their own notebook but on the website and twitter feed of such an important theatre?

I didn't hate it. It conveys real emotion, albeit from a teenaged perspective

The only part of that that I didn't roll my eyes at was the surname. I really fancy a curry now.

Totally misrepresents GC views as well.

I do recommend the poem. it's basically to her mother

I do get a bit tired of people talking to me when really they should just sit down and have it out with their mum

Now seems like an odd time to pick the TRA side given events of the last month or so.
not on Twitter but I might have to pop in to see the ratio on that!

'My beauty astounds them'

right you are

this was the play that started with a 10 minute monologue about the divinity of trans people, right?

What a shame!
I liked seeing plays at the Globe.
(I don't think that the poem will last as long as any of Shakespeare's :) )
