Little Lord Fondleroy is a saccharine nightmare in velvet and lace, whose cherubic curls and perfect manners provide a perfect cover for his constant yearnings- primarily for poetry, pleasure, head boys and total theatrical chaos.
In this riotous hour, whirl through a formative annus eroticus at Flippitts Darstardly Boarding School for Badly Behaved Boys, where forbidden desires flourish amidst a sadistic culture of cruelty cultivated by prefects and masters alike. Here, Fondleroy discovers that masculinity and Empire are stitched together by caning, cunning and carefully repressed desire.
Can he retain his innocent charm and boyish over-generosity while the forces around him attempt to stamp all that soppy, frilly, froppy feeling out of him?
Enter a world of boarding-school heartbreak, homoerotic hijinks, and imperial intrigue. Fusing drag, theatre, poetry and music, this hilariously subversive show rips open hidden histories to reveal the queer desires that have always been lurking beneath.
Written and Performed by Jordana Belaiche

Image description: The background features deep blue stage curtains parted to reveal a dimly lit stage. In the center, a drag performer (Little Lord Fondleroy) dressed in a deep purple velvet suit with a frilled white shirt leans forward dramatically while holding an open book, gazing at the viewer with an expressive, slightly mischievous look.
