Get geared up for a very special trip to the thee-ah-ter, because America’s First Lady of stage, little screen and big screen is coming to Dublin this June! Stockard Channing will play the redoubtable Lady Bracknell in Rough Magic’s new production of The Importance of Being Earnest in the Gaiety. Do we love her? Let’s count the ways!

If you’re Irish and/or gay and you don’t know who David Norris is, well then that must be one secluded rock you’re living under. And, in light of his being honoured in San Francisco last week – including comparisons with Harvey Milk – everyone should know him! He’s gone international!

I’ve been putting off writing this. How do you sum up someone like Noel Walsh in a few words? But, it’s Irish AIDS Day so I can feel him kicking me in the arse to get it done Noel may have passed away but he continually kicks me in the arse. Some friend eh? Yep, some friend.

It’s March which only means one thing to the gay calander – Aunty Panti is back with the Alternative Miss Ireland. However, busy as she is she still took time to answer a few questions for us Gaelickers!!!

We met up with those heroines of the gay world, Katherine Zappone and Ann Louise Gilligan, recently, for a candid chat about the inequality we still suffer. “Homosexuals are told, “That’s enough…No, no. No marriage for you, pal.” I mean, it’s unbelievable, outrageous. It’s utterly outrageous”.
