When the world’s monotony gets you down, Netflix is on the blink, and Grindr has ground to a halt… there’s a light at the end of the tunnel that promises relief from life’s mundane, socially acceptable routine. As you wander along the tunnel, closer to the light, the distant twinkle becomes brighter, bolder, radiating, eventually revealing a shimmering glitter curtain framing a dark, dusty stage. And there you are… you’re at The Glory in London: the UK’s newest LGBT performance art cum club venue. Suddenly, the humdrummity of daily life is vanquished; you’re in a miniature utopia where the choking constraints of social convention are brushed aside, and the delectable chaos of breaking down cultural norms is embraced.
