Last year, Alison Wearing published Confessions Of A Fairy’s Daughter, her bestselling memoir about discovering at age 12 that she had a gay dad. Now she’s developed the book into a solo show, in which she recounts her relationship with her dad and touches on key moments in local queer history like the Toronto bathhouse raids and the beginning of the AIDS crisis.
The show has got raves on the Fringe circuit and gets a four-day run at the George Ignatieff Theatre, June 25 to 28. fairysdaughter.com.
