Elegies for Angels, Punks and Raging Queens by Bill Russell and Janet Hood
Directed by Ruth Huggett
Performances: Tuesday 21st - Saturday 25th October 2008, Prompt Corner
Elegies is a collection of songs and monologues inspired by the AIDS memorial quilt - a memorial to the lives of people who have died of AIDS-related causes.
Surprisingly the show is fun and serves as a celebration of the lives of people affected. The subject matter is dark and moving at times, but overall is presented with humour and joy.
