SUMMARY:Bird la Bird’s Travelling Queer People’s History Show
DESCRIPTION:West Yorkshire Queer Stories Presents Bird la Bird… \nA revolutionary exploration of the deep queer past which may change the way you think about LGBTIQ+ history forever. \nThis box set worth of true stories squashed into a show bursts with information\, insight\, laughter and emotion. \nBeginning in the vast prison which once stood on the site of Tate Britain\, Bird lovingly traces the lives of queer prisoners spanning through centuries and across the British Empire. It decolonises LGBTIQ+ history by taking an inclusive\, irreverent approach to the past. \nAbout Bird la Bird \nBird la Bird (she/her) is a queer femme performance artist who straddles history\, comedy and working class politics. She has been described as a Queer Pearly Queen and a Haute Couture Fishwife. \nwww.birdlabird.co.uk \n(Portrait of Bird by Sarah Jane Moon) \nPlus Special Guests… \nProject sound artist Debbie Sharp premieres a soundscape drawing on voices recorded for West Yorkshire Queer Stories. \nEvening compered by Jordan Small (BE-LGBTQ: R’n’B with Edges\, Be Outspoken). \nAccessibility \nThis show is accessible in every sense of the word\, with audio description\, live captions and a DIY punk attitude to history.
