The world’s first show based on coming-out stories. This powerful, funny and confessional collation of over 20 true stories is performed by an acclaimed cast of four, with casting announced via www.OutingsTheShow.com.

Following its Edinburgh fringe 2014 premiere, the show tours the UK in spring 2015 ahead of international dates. More details at the official show site.

Few comings-out attract millions of YouTube views like Tom Daley’s did. But for whoever’s saying ‘I’m gay’ it’s a life-changing moment. Inspired by recent high-profile ‘comings out’, from Tom Daley and Ellen Page to Ricky Martin and NBA star Jason Collins, the show is based on stories from gay men and women from around the world, exploring how they came out and what effect it has had on their lives.

Directed by Tony Award winner David Grindley and written by the team behind the hit West End play The Act.
