Prince Faggot by Jordan Tannahill

In this episode, we celebrate the launch of Prince Faggot, one of the year’s most talked-about and provocative new plays, written by acclaimed playwright Jordan Tannahill. This live conversation explores the play’s audacious premise, radical imagination, and fearless interrogation of power, privilege, queerness, and colonial legacy. The discussion is moderated by director Shayok Misha Chowdhury and features reading performances by Mihir Kumar and David Greenspan, with a special musical performance by Arèwa Basit. Together, they unpack Prince Faggot as a poppers-fueled, metatheatrical thought experiment—one that boldly reimagines monarchy through queer and trans lived experience and asks who gets to inherit the future.
