Publisher's Synopsis
Most people get to be happy with one person I don't see why I should have it any different. The twenty-first century. Being gay is supposedly more integrated than ever. Marriage is legal, parenthood is possible and #LoveWins is trending on twitter. The time has arrived to settle down with the man you love for a life of lasting companionship. But in a world where sex is readily available, and with a history of sexual freedom; what does it mean to be in a gay relationship in the modern age? And why are so many gay men still lonely? Circa explores the blurred identity of the gay relationship in the modern age. Following the story of one mans romantic life, we are taken through the different relationships and encounters he experiences over a period of thirty years. Joining him through the joys and pitfalls of trying to find love and fulfilment as a gay man. Tom Ratcliffe's debut play Circa premiered at The Theater de Meervaart, Amsterdam on the 8th January 2016 as part of Festival Contact.
