What is going on with this play on the Fringe? The playwright says he has had death threats. He also says he would like JKR to see the play but he wouldn't want to meet her, but his play is balanced on this controversial topic. He also says he chose the name 'Terfs' for the play because of the behaviour of some of those who hold GC views.

I heard him I think on bbc R4 or LBC - he seemed desperate for publicity. Claimed his mother has received death threats. Was rather gleeful about that aspect. Made me think how full of male privilege he was wanting to use his freedom of speech and expression to shut down women’s.

I'm sure she's wiping away her tears 🙄

JKR, if you're reading, I don't care if you see a play but DD and I would really like to meet you.
