Lipstick, a new play by Lily Shahmoon will open at Southwark Playhouse from 4 March – 28 March 2020.
Tommy is scared of everything. Especially the kids at school who would call him gay if they saw him putting on lipstick. Jordan isn’t scared of anything. He’s not scared that he likes the way Tommy looks in lipstick. Really, he’s not.
Sorry, I don’t fit into your preconceived notions of me.
