'How bona to vada your dolly old eek!'
In the decades before decriminalisation, gay and queer men spoke ‘Polari’ - a secret gay slang that allowed gay men to ‘hide in plain sight’.
In this workshop learn the ‘rules’ of the language, decipher words and phrases, and make up your own sentences and mini-scenes for others to work out.
