NAZ: SINFUL PERVERTS, SEXUAL DEVIANTS, AND PRODUCTS OF THE GODLESS DEBAUCHED WEST (WIP)

WRITTEN BY MOHAMMED BARBER
At the peak of the AIDS crisis, four friends dare to create Britain’s first south Asian gay nightclub and community.

Set in 1990s Britain, at the peak of the AIDS crisis, NAZ uncovers the untold story of the queer South Asian pioneers who built the UK’s first gay nightclub. They dared and dreamed to carve a space where none existed for existence, resistance and for joy.

The beating heart of the club is its chunni (and string vest) clad queen, Miss Chutney. An all round blend of ugar, spice, and sass, Chutney dazzles on the only stage she’s allowed to perform on as herself with everything from the old classics to the latest Bollywood release.

Dust off your jutti and chappal, it’s time to relive those 90s classics. It’s a place where the boys meet their Sharukh and the girls their Kajol.

But faced with the debilitating pressures of a deadly disease, and rejection from your own community, do your fight for yourself, or something bigger? Can you really balle balle your way to happiness?

Inspired by real events and conversations.
