10 QUEER THINGS TO BRIGHTEN WINTER DAYS

1 Rah-rah for Lesbian Love

Good news for fans of ’90s indie film But I’m a Cheerleader (starring icons Natasha Lyonne and Clea DuVall) — well, if you’re near London, anyway. The queer cult classic that follows a closeted lesbian cheerleader on her journey through conversion therapy, first love, and ultimate self-acceptance has been adapted into a full-fledged stage musical.

It will run from February through April at the Turbine Theatre in London.
