The play 'Heart's Desire' examines the impact of conversion therapy on the psyche of young people with different sexual orientations. The drama takes place in a church in Britain and presents a series of meetings between Jude, a young student, and a priest. Through these meetings, Jude attempts to change his sexual orientation to please his father.
The play takes place in a location owned by the church in Britain and describes a series of meetings between a young student named Jude (a name that alludes to Judas Iscariot) and a priest. The goal of these meetings is to convert Jude's sexual orientation. This is because Jude was caught by his father watching pornographic material, and his father sent him for "therapy" within the church framework.
Jude, a religious young man, does everything to please his father and be 'beloved' by God. While undergoing "therapy," he imagines his scout leader Joshua (a name that alludes to Jesus), with whom he is in love. Joshua is unaware of this. Jude dreams of living with his beloved in a relationship and raising a child together.
The play examines the impact of conversion therapy on the psyche of young individuals with diverse sexual orientations and its social implications.
