A Life in Three Acts revisits Bette Bourne's activist past.

In 2007, Mark Ravenhill—London playwright, actor and arts journalist—declared in the Guardian that he'd be "happy to never write another gay character again." His essay, titled "My Pink Fountain Pen Has Run Dry,"discussed a new television series he was creating, and how he was, uncharacteristically, leaving gays out of the mix because he had tired of mining queer stories, possibly forever.

But just a couple of years later, his pink fountain pen began flowing again. The acclaimed result, A Life in Three Acts, is crossing the pond for a run at St. Ann's Warehouse beginning this week.
