Back in the day radio was the playlist we had no say in, no shuffle for, just a DJ in a world far away responsible for our listening treasures as we grew.

Queer cinema has always lit the way for this dramatic soul. The films watched with adolescent blushes as I hoped my mother wouldn’t note my interest in the lives of Oscar, Orton, Arnold, Quentin, or Maurice doing their queer thing on our Radio Rental. The unbridled joy of digging into Go Fish or the heat of Desert Hearts as I worked out my passions in … Continue reading Lewes Depot QueerFest
