Performances run 3 - 4 June 2024 at The Loading Dock Theatre.
How do they shop? Do they have facial hair? What do they eat? And of course – that age old question – how do they have sex?
Felicity Nicol, seasoned Lesbian of 38 years, will be asking these questions and more to help ensure the future of lesbians is stronger than ever! This is the professional development course you wish you had when you were young, dumb and thinking all lesbians must have short hair.
Poetry readings, Sappho séance, instruction manuals and Alan keys – all this and more will be included in this cuntarific contemporary performance!
With guest features from Basjia Almaan, Maddy Gandhi, Cheryn Frost, Hannah Malarski, Sylvia Kinder, and Sheanna Parker Russon, this satirical talk show will showcase a broad spectrum of the lesbian community, from First Nations voices to sex workers, to genderqueer and trans lesbians, reflecting a wide array of ages.
How to be a Lesbian runs from 3 - 4 June 2024 at The Loading Dock Theatre. Tickets are $35.
