Suranne Jones stars in new gay play

Suranne Jones, who played Coronation Street's Karen McDonald, is starring on stage in a gay play in Manchester called The Newspaper Boy.

Set amidst Manchester’s vibrant gay scene in the early 90s, The Newspaper Boy deals with the effects of fame at a young age, and explores issues surrounding the age of consent for gay men. The play runs at the Deaf Institute on Grosvenor Street, Manchester from Feb 8-10. Catch it while you can.
