Queer Festival | edition: family & friends

In the organizer's words:

Every year, the month of June is marked by Pride, the month in which the Stonewall Riots took place in NYC. Schauspiel Dortmund wants to make queer perspectives of the city and beyond visible and audible - on three days in Pride Month June - through music, talks, workshops and performances.

This festival focuses on queer affiliations that are characterized by solidary, liberating and transformative relationships. The edition family & friends focuses on the mutual support and love that queer people show each other in Chosen Families. family & friends - that means the (performative) presence of queer political practices against fascist and queer-hostile positions that quite a few of us experience in our immediate environment.

For the fifth anniversary of the Queer Festival , the curators are extending a special invitation to celebrate rainbow families and old and new friendships. We are looking forward to a wonderful family reunion with Mercedes Tuccini, Tito Bone, Mimi Vogt, Tarek Shrukallah, Shari Asha Crosson, Cute Community, Zainab Lax and other guests.
