Description
"With honesty, humour and occasional anger, performer Bette Bourne tells the playwright Mark Ravenhill about his life. The story moves from a post-war childhood, to the Gay Liberation Front, life in a drag commune and on to the creation of the ground-breaking Bloolips company and beyond." "The piece, in three parts, marks a different series of events in Bette's life to reveal a portrait of an amazing individual and a celebration of the momentous struggles and achievements of gay liberation." "A Life in Three Acts premiered at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh on 18 August 2009 prior to an international tour, in a production by London Artists Projects in association with Koninklijke Schouwburg / Het Paradijs, The Hague." "Includes an introduction by Mark Ravenhill." --Book Jacket.
