Reflecting on LGBTQ+ History Month at the Lakeside Theatre

The Lakeside Theatre team reflect on a busy month of LGBTQ+ theatre, workshops and screenings which brought together and celebrated the LGBTQ+ community at Essex.

I consider LGBTQ+ History Month to be of even more vital importance than Pride Month itself. It’s one thing to be proud of where we are, but this month calls on us to pay respects to the people who helped get us here and those we’ve lost on the way. In curating this month, I chose shows which were grounded in some way to our history, and in turn, suggests a way forward. LGBTQ+ History Month is as much a reflection of our past as it is a demand for the future of our community.

This blog post discusses the recent exhibition in the Albert Sloman Library which focuses on the critical stance he took against the Age of the Enlightenment with its emphasis on science and reason.
