Toxic

Book
Two men are wrapped in an intimate embrace against a backdrop of coloured smoke, with one man wearing a white tank top and the other with pink hair, gazing directly into the camera. The vibrant hues of purple, pink, and green smoke create a dramatic, moody atmosphere around them, highlighting their connection and the intensity of the moment.

''This show is far from Toxic- it is a breath of fresh air''

West End Best Friend

Toxic is the hotly anticipated explosive new show from award-winning theatremaker Nathaniel J Hall (First Time, It’s A Sin), celebrating the survival and resilience of the queer spirit.  

Manchester 2017. A chance meeting on a hook-up app sets two damaged thirty-something hearts on a spectacular collision course. He is HIV+ and drowning in shame. They are one microaggression away from a full-on meltdown. Born into Thatcher’s Britain of race riots and rampant homophobia and growing up in the shadow of Aids and Section 28, the pair form a trauma bond so tight, they might just survive it all.

But sometimes survival means knowing when to leave.
