The Boy Who Never Was tells the story of a young queer man, Máni Steinn – film fanatic and dreamer – who exists on the fringes of an intolerant society at a moment of profound global transformation. Set in both 1918 and 2022, against the parallel backdrops of global pandemic, war in Europe and growing intolerance of others, the play draws a line between past and present, exploring the cyclical nature of human history and the role of art as both a comfort and a compass.
