A 90-minute masterclass in not giving a single damn—delivered by the sharpest tongue in heels.
In this witty monologue, Quentin Crisp advises and opines about personal style (with a few digressions).
Writing
Every sentence a quotable blade—no improvisation, pure architecture.
Acting
Crisp IS the character he invented; decades of polish in every gesture.
Production
Intimate staging—just him, a chair, and absolute command.
Director
James Cady
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed between the Stonewall era and AIDS crisis, Crisp's refusal of 'gay community' politics made him a polarizing elder—radical individualist or tragic relic depending on your generational lens.
John Hurt would play Crisp in 'The Naked Civil Servant' four years earlier; this is essentially the real man correcting the record.
