The P Word by Waleed Akhtar | Teaser Trailer

"I'm like the best version of brown. I'd even hook up with myself."
Londoner Bilal (or Billy as he prefers to be known) is ground down by years of Grindr and the complexity of being a brown gay man. Their worlds are about to change forever. Zafar flees homophobic persecution in Pakistan to seek asylum in the UK.
Moving through casual hook-ups to the UK’s hostile environment, Waleed Akhtar’s sharp-witted and devastating new play charts the parallel lives of two gay Pakistani men. This story of who wins in the luck of life’s draw is a new Bush Theatre commission directed by Anthony Simpson-Pike (Lava).
THE P WORD is playing at the Bush Theatre from 9 September.
