John Lee, a “queer chink” commits a “toilet sex murder” in Bethnal Green. The play concentrates on drawing out Lee’s motive on “cottaging.” At first he explains that he was seeking friendship, love and relief from cultural isolation, but what’s really going on? As winner of the London Fringe Award for Best Play, this Orange County Premiere examines the gay, Asian-European experience. John Lee has confessed to killing his lover in a London men’s room. The crime of passion is dissected through the media, flashbacks and memories. See the show that The London Times called “a most remarkable achievement…. A drama of racial grief, generating the urgency of a thriller and the power of an archetype.”
