Plays. Art. Music. Lecture. Drag. Film. Politics.
THISISPOPBABY and Calipo Theatre Company are ecstatic to present QUEER NOTIONS - a celebration of queer ideas and performance from Ireland and beyond, as part of the 2009 Dublin LGBTQ Pride Festival.
This year’s programme includes: Playwright Phillip McMahon's exhilarating All Over Town, a backpacker’s adventures in the dark underbelly of Sydney’s seedy gay scene; Graphic Artist Niall Sweeney’s poignant and funny performance lecture charting the rise of the Alternative Miss Ireland pageant; and Victor and Gord, a compelling and moving show from rising Irish director Una McKevitt about the complexities of family and friendship.
Alongside hotly anticipated shows from UK artists David Hoyle and Bourgeois & Maurice, Panti (the High Queen of Ireland) takes part in some late night debauchery, while writer and activist Tonie Walsh curates an evocative exhibition from the Irish Queer Archive.
And not to be missed, our special post-Pride march screening of Before Stonewall a landmark in Queer history on film.
