Forestillingen handler om Quentin Crisp (1908-1999) som døde bare en måned før sin 91-dag. Før det hadde hans frittalende tanker, skriverier og alternative livsstil inspirert generasjoner. Da han vokste opp i London-forstaden Sutton, sminket han seg, brukte neglelakk og farget håret i en tid få våget å skille seg ut og ble sjikanert av samfunnet.
