This Pride season, we are diving into the rich world of queer performance, from drag and comedy to burlesque and cabaret, we explore how these art forms have long been spaces of liberation, resistance, and community. Created in collaboration with incredible Queer, Black and POC artists, our diverse programme centres the voices and experiences that have shaped and propelled the LGBTQ+ movement.
Sat 14 June 12-7:30pm
Get Creative: Queer Performance
In partnership with Proud North London
A day of workshops celebrating the power of self-expression and the art of authentic storytelling. Queer performance isn’t just art – it’s a powerful act of visibility, reclaiming narratives and breaking boundaries. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or just curious to explore, come connect, create, and celebrate the beauty of being unapologetically yourself.
