Je Suis Charlie: A Black Comedy on Queer Life in Manchester

Get ready for something special hitting Manchester! Rough Boy MCR is bringing to the stage "Je Suis Charlie", a black Comdey that dives deep into queer life. This show is all set to make its mark from March 28-30, 2024, at the 53two venue.

The story zooms in on Charlie, a cartoonist known for stirring the pot with his drawings. Things take a turn when Charlie meets Mike through Grindr, a guy who's not too pleased with Charlie's work and is on a mission for justice. Their encounter sparks a rich conversation about identity, beliefs, and the layers of queer life. It's a mix of humor, serious talk, and everything in between.

Behind this play are some creative minds. Nick Maynard, the brain behind "Je Suis Charlie", brings his theatre expertise and a track record of accolades to this project. Directing the play is Scott Le Crass, known for his knack for storytelling and bringing characters to life on stage.

Rough Boy MCR is all about bold storytelling, especially stories that resonate with the queer community. "Je Suis Charlie" is their latest effort to do just that – challenging the norm and celebrating the diverse tapestry of queer history and the present.

There are evening shows planned at 7.30 pm 28th/29th/30th march and a special matinee on Saturday, March 30, at 5 pm. This play is more than just entertainment; it's an invitation to reflect, laugh, and maybe see the world a bit differently.

"Je Suis Charlie" is not just any play. It's a bold look at life, art, and the conversations that define us. Join us for a performance that's set to spark discussions and maybe even inspire change.
