Ask anyone who identifies anywhere on the LGBT spectrum for their coming out story and you'll likely get not one but several.

It's a process - hard to go through for many - that can end up being repeated often with each new person or social group.

What's striking then, in Everybody's Talking About Jamie, is that the musical's story is not about a 16-year-old Sheffield schoolboy Jamie New coming out as gay.

Instead Jamie - played by the talented Ivan - navigates the difficulties of how to reveal his dream of being a drag queen to his classmates and friends.

Played out on a brilliant set, Jamie is taken under the wing of drag dress shop owner Hugo - played by John Partridge - who encourages Jamie through the telling of his own drag past as Loco Chanelle.

School bully Dean (Jordan Ricketts), clueless teacher Miss Hedge (Giovanna Fletcher) and a cruel father ultimately all fail to deter Jamie from taking to the stage under his new drag persona.

Jamie's story is brought to life with a brilliant cast - from drag queens to his mum Margaret (Rebecca McKinnis) and her fiercely-loyal pal Ray (Shobna Gulati) - who had the audience rooting for the teenager, and up on their feet by the end of the night.

This based-on-a-true-story musical is as powerful as it is funny, packed with laughs and a powerful message: don't be afraid to tell people who you really are.
