Hook ups are a big feature in the modern gay experience - whether it's killing time on Grindr, searching for closeness, or just getting off. It's an easy way to feel some sort of connection to someone, to belong somewhere. But how are these temporary encounters shaping out s*xual identi

ties and our growing disconnect from each other? These encounters from writer and Legacy Project founder Bruce Brown aren't just about casual s*x, but the disconnections behind the search for connection. Explore modern gay hook-up culture and how this brutal meat market may have forever changed how we connect.

"The technicals are refined and supportive, the acting is at times sublimely good, the direction clipped and economic but it's the script – Brown's acute observations of his community and his compassion for his fellow men – that is the most laudable." Another fantastic review for Hook-Up Boys, this time from Lexie Matheson for Theatreview. *WARNING: show spoilers contained within...

Hook-Up Boys is exceedingly good theatre and Legacy Project founder Bruce Brown, always an excellent practitioner, would seem to be absolutely on top of his game.

REVIEW: Hook-Up Boys (The Basement) Review by Tim George September 23, 2016 Tim George Theatre Reviews Ciarin Smith [A Satyrical Satire] S*x is an easy starting place for comedy.

ONE MORE SLEEP UNTIL OPENING NIGHT!

This is one of my most treasured possessions. My boyfriend discovered this collection of lyrics and hid it away from me until my birthday one year. If I hadn’t discovered the music of Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke, I can say for certain that I wouldn’t have started writing. It was the poetry of h...

"I’ve always been drawn to writing characters that seek connection but often via deceitful means. This underlying contradiction drives these encounters and questions whether we can truly connect with anyone when we can’t even be honest with ourselves.” - Hook-Up Boys writer/director Bruce Brown
