CGiii Comment
London, 1966. A woman exposed as a lesbian can expect to lose her job, her lodgings, her family. But in one subterranean corner of Chelsea, the Gateways club offers a safe haven for women to dance, express themselves and love who they want. Or does it? Maureen Duffy published The Microcosm in 1966, turning her probing gaze to London’s first and infamous lesbian hang out. 56 years later, Maureen’s words are brought vividly to life by two-time Oscar winner Glenda Jackson.
