Paper Cut is a queer love story that looks at how a man’s identity is affected by injury, and by fighting for a country that doesn’t fully accept you.
This tender and funny new play by American writer Andrew Rosendorf is a timely exploration of queer men in the military.
Directed by Scott Hurran, Paper Cut stars Heartstopper’s Tobie Donovan, Big Boys’ Callum Mardy, Joe Bolland (Othello, Our Generation – National Theatre), and Prince Kundai (Bootycandy).
In the play, young gay American soldier Kyle returns from Afghanistan after being injured in an IED blast. Only a paper cut. Or that’s what he wants his friends, family, and a potential new love to believe. Paper Cut is a raw exploration of the physical and emotional toll of returning soldiers and how they navigate their way through another minefield – returning home.
Joining Scott Hurran in the creative team are Sorcha Corcoran (Set and costume design), Lucia Sanchez Roldan (Lighting design), Chris Warner (Sound design), Carlyn Aquiline (Dramaturg), and Charlotte Holder (Producer).
Paper Cut runs at the Park Theatre in North London from 7 June to 1 July 2023.
