Fabulous Head

26 Jun 2012 / Comments Off / in Stage/by Clayton Littlewood

[rating=5]
60 min • Leicester Square Theatre • Jun 16, Jul 1, Jul 31, 2012

Clayton Littlewood is blown away by Dexter Clark’s Fabulous Head. The hecklers didn’t stand a chance.

“It was refreshing. Funny. With a minute amount of Mrs Merton, a sprinkling of Savage and a big bite of Bernhard.”

LGBT Heroes – Day 12

12 Feb 2012 / Comments Off / in LGBT History Month/by Clayton Littlewood

Quentin Crisp

Clayton Littlewood selects Quentin Crisp for Polari Magazine’s list of LGBT Heroes. For UK LGBT History Month 2012.

In this ‘bear age’ of gay male culture that we now seem to be sheltering in, it’s the individuals that choose not to follow the herd, individuals that take a different path that I find the most interesting. And no one took a more different path than St Quentin.

An interview with the cast of Dirty White Boy

28 Apr 2010 / Comments Off / in Interviews/by Christopher Bryant

Dirty White Boy: from blog, to book, to stage.

Christopher Bryant talks with the assistant director and the cast of the play Dirty White Boy in the final days of rehearsals. We talk about settings songs to the action, the underwear scenes, and most important of all the great emotion that is at the heart of the work.

“It’s not a gay play,” Clayton insists. “It’s a social play,” Kat confirms “It’s a commentary on a certain time and a certain place.” Now we’ve really hit on something, and everyone becomes more animated as a result.

Soho Stories • Clayton Littlewood on David Shenton

16 Mar 2010 / Comments Off / in soho stories/by Clayton Littlewood

Clayton Littlewood’s Soho Stories: David Shenton.

Clayton writes about an exhibition at the Drill Hall by the cartoonist, David Shenton.

I first saw Shenton’s cartoons in the weekly gay newspaper Capital Gay back in the early 80’s. They were funny, thought-provoking, depicting a world of check shirt and leather-clad clones.

Soho Stories • Clayton Littlewood on Soft Cell

08 Mar 2010 / Comments Off / in soho stories/by Clayton Littlewood

Clayton Littlewood’s Soho Stories: Soft Cell and Lady Gaga

Clayton writes about the joys of Soft Cell and the inspiration of Lady Gaga.

He tells me where the early Soft Cell videos were filmed (around Walkers Court), about recording in Trident (which is just up the road on St Anne’s Court), a studio where Bowie and Bolan once recorded.

Soho Stories • Clayton Littlewood on A Prophet

23 Feb 2010 / Comments Off / in soho stories/by Clayton Littlewood

Clayton Littlewood’s Soho Stories: the film The Prophet

Clayton writes about the film The Prophet, and Sebastian Horsley.

But what was also nice were all the bum shots. There were bum shots in A Single Man but they were arty bum shots. Bums drifting in cloudy swimming pools. Bums lingering seductively in bedrooms. In A Prophet they were ‘dangerous’ bum shots.

Soho Stories • Clayton Littlewood on Tom Ford

16 Feb 2010 / Comments Off / in soho stories/by Clayton Littlewood

Clayton Littlewood’s Soho Stories: on Tom Ford.

Clayton writes about Tom Ford, A Single Man, and Ford sidestepping the issue of homosexuality.

What has been disappointing is that this is now the third interview I’ve read where Ford has tried to distance himself from the film’s homosexuality ‘It’s not a gay movie. Absolutely not,’ he said in one interview.

About Polari Magazine

Polari Magazine is an LGBT arts and culture magazine that explores the subculture by looking at what is important to the people who are in it. It’s about the lives we lead, not the lifestyles we’re supposed to lead.

Its content is informed & insightful, and features a diverse range of writers from every section of the community. Its intent is to help LGBT readers learn about their own heritage and to sustain a link between the present and the past.

Polari is designed to nurture the idea of community, whether that be social and political, or artistic and creative. It is your magazine, whether you want to read it, or whether you want to get involved in it, if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or queer.

Polari Magazine is all these: it's a gay online magazine; it's a gay and lesbian online magazine; it's an LGBT arts and culture magazine. Ultimately, it is a queer magazine.
