Presented by Ghetto Fabulous as part of the Mini Migration Matters Festival.
Please note this event is taking place at Weston Park Museum – Western Bank, Weston Park Museum, Mushroom Lane, Sheffield S10 2TP.
And the category is… family friendly! Family Catwalk Extravaganza inspired by Black Queer Joy features us, the dancers and performers from Ghetto Fabulous who originate from Manchester, Huddersfield and Liverpool. The North of England has a vibrant vogueing community which we are part of but continue to expand to the next level.
In our show, we promote equality and diversity through Black-led LGBTQ+ arts activities competing to be crowned as the audience’s chosen winner in a series of challenges. It’s an outright celebration of fashion, music, dance, individuality, aspiration and creativity.
Hosted by Stuart, the audience are treated to fashion, dance and lip sync battles and given the chance to vote for their favourite in each category by making as much noise as possible. With an emphasis on self-expression and celebrating diversity, it’s a space for gay, trans, gender non-conforming and questioning young people plus their friends and families to see positive, celebratory representations of themselves. It is also an eye opening and magical experience for everyone to explore different identities and ways of being outside of the mainstream, through movement, dance and costume. The soundtrack is an electric mix of R&B, disco, pop, and hip hop
