Ancient Queerstories

Ancient Queerstories: New Stages for Old Tales

We have always been here, sure - but who are we again? Queer history is less of a family tree and more a beautiful knot of strange recognitions, anachronistic desires, and touches across time. Join Queer and the Classical, your hosts Dionysos Slain and Izzy Okay, and a dazzling cast of performers as we untangle, misinterpret, and relive the queernesses of the global ancient past through drag and performance art. But were Achilles and Patroclus really gay boyfriends in the Iliad? We're not telling.

Find here the Live Recording from our show Ancient Queerstories, performed on the 14th of March 2024 at the Avalon Cafe in London.
