Details

A festival of theatre and performance, cabaret, comedy, short films and lively discussion about feminism: what it meant then, what it means now, and why it's resurgent. There will be brand new shows, special commissions, input from leading feminist thinkers and provocateurs, and a critical eye turned on gender inequality, the sexualisation of society, everyday sexism, and much more. The last thing it'll make you do, dears, is calm down. "I am a lesbian with a shaved head and a hairy body. She used to lapdance in a wig and call herself Rosanna. She was my idol. She is my sister. We are feminists." Rosana Cade presents this intimate performance for one person at a time, which contains lap-dancing. This performance is part of an ongoing collaboration with Rosana's older sister, Amy, who has worked as a lap-dancer and in various roles within the sex industry, My Big Sister... was shown for the first time as part of Arches Live 2012, where it received a 5-star review from Mary Brennan in The Herald. Rosana is a queer artist based in Glasgow, who creates experiential performances that challenge perceptions of different sexualities. She is co-founder of Glasgow's BUZZCUT festival.
