A new and controversial play is debuting at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival that will undoubtedly ruffle some feathers.
‘TERF’, an upcoming one-act production by American writer Joshua Kaplan (HBO Max’s ‘Tokyo Vice’), will delve into trans issues between the infamous trans-exclusionary radical feminist ‘Harry Potter’ author J.K. Rowling who has been spending her time attacking trans people and allies online.
Surprisingly enough, The Hollywood Reporter reports that the play’s creative team claimed that the play is not a “hit piece and has asked Rowling to attend the show”, an invitation that Kaplan insists is genuine and not an attempt at “trolling.”
The premise of the play is that Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint— the lead actors of Rowling’s books-turned-megahit-films— organize an intervention that would have “interspersed flashback scenes that serve to explain how Rowling developed her rigid views about gender.”
