An unplanned pregnancy is always going to be a shocking surprise. It’s even more scary when you’re both men. Spitting Image tells the story of Gary and Tom – parents-to-be.

Gary is pregnant and no one really knows how it's happened. It confounds their neighbours, fascinates the scientific community, and confronts government policy – but all Tom and Gary want to do is figure out how to navigate this drastic change in their lives.

Written by Colin Spencer and first performed in 1968, Spitting Image is the UK’s first openly gay play. An enormous critical success after its first performance, it was considered too controversial for publication, and was never performed again – until now.
