About SMOKE:
Alex has a new message on Insta from his boyfriend Ben. But Ben died two years ago.
An ‘everyday’ hack turns into something quite different, as Alex’s life spirals out of control. Reality meets fantasy in the premiere of this new solo queer-thriller meets savage queer-comedy, that’s a wild assault to the senses, and peak into a hidden world.
From playwright and performer Alexis Gregory; ‘Riot Act’ (Kings Head Theatre, West End, touring, online), ‘FutureQueer' (Kings Head Theatre), ‘Sex/Crime’ (Soho Theatre), and director Campbell X; ‘Stud Life’, ‘DES!RE’ (both screen), ‘My White Best Friend’ (Royal Court Theatre).
