“This is your coming-out suit. You needn’t say anything – in fact, don’t – the spectacle will do it all. I’m taking you to my club.”

In 1887, Nan Astley sits in the audience; she doesn’t know it yet, but the next act on the bill will change her life. Tipping The Velvet is a coming-of-age love story exploring desire, sex, class and identity in the queer subcultures hidden beneath the soot and grime of Victorian London.

Tipping the Velvet is performed by our MA Performance – Acting cohort.

Age guidance: 18+

An amateur production by arrangement with Knight Hall Agency Ltd
