For Midsumma Festival, Queerstories is headed toi Brunswick Mechanics Institute with a line up of the LGBTQI+ community’s best artists, performers and creatives.

Enter the raucous, radical and wildly funny world of Queerstories, and enjoy an unexpected tale or two from a diverse line up of stars and strangers, reflections on lives well lived and battles fought, pride, prejudice, love and humour.

The LGBTQIA community has been sharing stories for centuries, creating our own histories, disrupting and reinventing conventional ideas about narrative, family and community. There’s so much more to being queer than coming out and equal marriage.

Fast becoming an institution around Australia, Queerstories has now seen more than 100 LGBTQI+ storytellers take to the stage, with a popular podcast boasting surprising, moving and at times downright hilarious bite-sized episodes, and a book of the stories published by Hachette Australia in 2018.

Winner of Best Spoken Word at Sydney Fringe Festival 2016.

This event is Auslan interpreted.
