Patti Boo Rae is a woman in exile. She and her band the Do-Gooders just keep touring so they never have to look back. But in BOOTCUT she’s going back to her roots. This is a show about Patti’s home state of Texas: why she still loves it, and why it’ll never love her back.
Featuring live music from Country greats like George Strait, Dolly Parton, Miranda Lambert and Miley Cyrus, this is a show about LGBT+ rights in Texas, made for Patti’s new home in the UK. What does it mean for Brits to embrace the “gay cowboy” aesthetic while disavowing Texas as a backwards place where bad things happen—and how might that distract from the precarious state of LGBT+ rights on this very island?
