Edward Dorking was ‘different’. Openly different.

Third Class revives the true story of a young English man, Edward Dorking, who was packed off on the Titanic, destined to be corrected by his American relatives. Edward Dorking was gay. Openly gay, and on Wednesday, April 10th, 1912, he set sail for NYC.
He survived the sinking. This is his story.

UNSINKABLE? UNTHINKABLE.

Using music, movement, projection, and historical facts, Third Class tells the story of an unknown hero from a well-known story.
