BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club: Straight Actors, Queer Roles, Hostile Places

We’re live from the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café in Fitzrovia, London for our first BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club, and things get philosophical — and political.

Filmmaker Joe Stephenson joins us to tackle the ongoing debate: should straight actors still be cast in queer roles? Is the pendulum swinging, or are we stuck in a loop of missed opportunities? And if representation is more than visibility, where does the real power lie?

Photographer Charles Moriarty weighs in on whether he’d exhibit in countries where being LGBTQ+ is still illegal. Is showing up a brave act — or does it risk complicity? And our founder Ghislain Pascal talks about the responsibility of queer artists and institutions when working globally.
