A love story told through the eyes of a soldier

Step into the heart of war with Paper Cut. This powerful exploration delves into the physical and emotional toll of returning soldiers and the struggles they face as they navigate their way through the minefield of returning home.

Paper Cut is not just a story about war, it’s an examination of what it means to be a man, and more specifically, what it means to be a gay man. This is a love story told through the eyes of a soldier – a person willing to die for their country, even when their country tells them otherwise.

This raw and thought-provoking play will leave you questioning the true cost of war and the resilience of the human spirit. Don’t miss out on this powerful, new drama – book tickets to Paper Cut now.

Paper Cut runs from 7 June 2023 until 1 July 2023 at Park Theatre, London.

‘It’s the end of the Earth. And if I’m gonna fucking die, I at least want to die knowing I loved‘

A young gay American soldier, Kyle, returns from Afghanistan after being injured in an IED blast. Only a paper cut. Or that’s what he wants his friends, family, and a potential new love to believe.
