On Friday 6 July I’ll be speaking at Sydney’s Queerstories. A keen audience member, I’ll be performing this time around and telling a short story.
Maeve Marsden, the host and producer, describes the event like this: It involves ‘reflections on lives well lived and battles fought, pride, prejudice, love and humour. The LGBTQI community has been sharing stories for centuries, creating our own histories, disrupting and reinventing conventional ideas about narrative, family, love and community. There’s more to being queer than coming out and marriage. Listen to an unexpected tale or two from a diverse line up of stars and strangers’.
The July Queerstories features myself, author Sara Knox, writer Nevo Zisin, actor and producer Bali Padda, bureaucrat & procrastinator Jen Peden, and more to be announced.
All Queerstories events are auslan interpreted, there is disabled access, and everyone is welcome. Tickets available here.
