We are very bad queers and we're making a show about it!
Some of us are afraid of dancing. Some of us don’t like ABBA. Some of us are old and out of fashion. Some of us just don’t get drag. Some of us are too femme. Some of us are too serious. Some of us have never been in fashion. Some of us really don’t 'love the nightlife'.
Bad Queers Do Theatre presents HOMO FOMO, a show exploring the rules that dictate ‘how to be a queer person’ and the ways they become fixed over time through repetition. It’s about nightclubs, which are more complex than usual representations of glitter, mirror balls and sweaty bodies suggest. We want to know: what do these rules do and what happens if you break them? HOMO FOMO draws on intergenerational queer experiences to ask what it means to be part of ‘the queer community’ today, or indeed to feel that you are missing out on it.
Find out more about the show here.
HOMO FOMO is Bad Queers in hot pursuit of queer joy.
