“If the playwright means to shock, mission accomplished. But here’s the real shocker… The play is thrilling.”

The New York Times

“A horny, thought-provoking play that’s as academic as it is avant-garde.”

Cosmopolitan

“One of the year’s best new plays.”

The Wrap

“Staged by the director Shayok Misha Chowdhury with explicit brio.”

The New Yorker

“Swooningly romantic and searingly sexy.”

The Queer Review

“Wildly camp, unexpectedly soulful and gut-punch emotional”

Attitude

“A powerful declaration of self-sovereignty”

The New York Times

The year is 2032. Charles is still king, and the first openly gay heir to the British throne is coming home.

What unfolds is a gloriously profane and surprisingly tender love story -one that dismantles decorum and deconstructs theatrical convention in favor of something messier, braver, and defiantly alive.

Equal parts delicate and audacious, Prince Faggot is a dazzling, witty, and boundlessly inventive fantasia of royal expectation and queer self-invention that reminds us that our truest duty isn’t to legacy or lineage, but to the raw, reckless act of living freely.
