White Bear Theatre, Kennington
19 & 20 June 7:30 pm
Half of the box office proceeds went to Stonewall.
An eleven -strong male cast brought David Foley's story of love and hate to the London stage.
'Rhode Island, 1919. Sailors are sent in to infiltrate and expose homosexuality in the local Naval Base. When the boundaries are blurred, and prejudice is confronted face-to-face, will their loyalties lie with Uncle Sam?'
Based on a real-life sex scandal that escalated all the way to Roosevelt, the play was a powerful and pertinent examination of bigotry and injustice. As the debate about homosexuality in the US military still rages, it's a timely reminder that progress is not always forthcoming.
Funny, provocative and moving, A Hole in the Fence journeyed through lives and relationships shaped by forbidden love and cleaving hatred.
