May Day In Rehearsal

The Production

Rehearsal photography for TO Entertainment’s workshop production of May Day at King’s Head Theatre, a new LGBTQIA+ musical that evolved from the 2025 work-in-progress Like A Rat. Set around the Hampstead Ponds, the production uses myth and magical realism to explore queer sanctuary, protest and belonging.
