About Boy Out The City
In Boy Out The City, Declan invites us to venture deep into the intricate and tumultuous realm of toxic masculinity, homophobia, and men's psychological well-being. He fearlessly tackles his formative years in a Catholic school in Coventry, unearths the vibrant Gay scene of 90s Soho, and emerges triumphant from the unforgiving brilliance of New York City's lights.
