Benjamin Quirk will use his Quick Response Residency to develop Twink Death, a solo theatre work exploring queer identity, ageing, desirability and body image through comedy, autofiction and interactive AV design. First developed through the 600 Seconds program at The Blue Room Theatre and presented at FRINGE WORLD, the work brings online queer culture and digital aesthetics into a live theatre context.
During his residency, Quirk will refine the script, develop projection and AV design and rehearse movement and staging ahead of a planned presentation at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
