About What’s Wrong With Angry?

Before Heartstopper, Sex Education, and Love, Simon, there was What’s Wrong With Angry?,  Patrick Wilde’s groundbreaking, award-winning play that redefined queer storytelling on stage. Set in late-1980s Britain and pulsing with a Hi-NRG soundtrack, it follows schoolboys Steven Carter and John Westhead as they navigate first love and forbidden desire under the oppressive shadow of Section 28 — the law that banned the “promotion of homosexuality” in schools.

Raw, funny, and powerfully moving, What’s Wrong With Angry? is both a coming-of-age story and a defiant act of protest - a vital piece of LGBTQ+ theatre history that still resonates today.

It’s worth the applause

  • “I laughed, I cried, I bought another ticket” Stephen Fry
  • “A gripping drama… told with such high energy, passion, tenderness, wit and humour” - Time Out
  • “Delivers a powerful punch” - Evening Standard
