Butch/Stud

Butch/Stud is coordinated by a collective of Butch Queers who like to perform, push boundaries, share skills and celebrate Butch culture. We feel it is so important that all people, but especially young people have as many examples as possible of folk who don’t conform to gender stereotypes. With our facebook page (Butch as F#ck) and events we aim to create a space for queers and their friends to gather, share and feel safe, a space that folk young and old can find come and find resonance with others like themselves.

Butch/Stud Collective

Get your bonds tee out, polish your best boots and join us in celebrating Butch identity and culture. Butch/Stud will feature local and international LBQ artists, Sappho singers, drag kings, diesel dyke poets, butch and butch loving performers telling stories of Butch visibility and pride. If you love all things Butch then come help us pass the PRIDE on and make a space for old friends and baby dykes to come together and have a good time. Everyone is welcome.

We are so pleased to share with you that Steve Suchard is coming to sing for us!
A professional film, television, and made-for-television movie extra, Steve has appeared in best-loved classics such as Mother, May I Sleep with Danger (man on park bench), Someone I Touched (beach volleyball player), Rosemary’s Baby II – Look What Happened to Rosemary’s Baby (man praying), and Back to the Future Part III (boy on locomotive). Brand new to singing and the stage, Steve will be singing the theme song from his school prom.
Fresh from the UK, Krishna Istha is a live artist and performance maker named as ‘One to watch’ on the Rainbow List 2015 (the annual celebration of the 100 most influential LGBT+ people in the UK). Their work once aptly described by Pink Fringe (UK) as “politicized pop culture parody at its finest”, and they are bringing it for you at Butch/Stud.     Krishna is interested in transformations and pop culture representation, their work takes the form of comedic political acts and alter egos that focus on themes of queer culture, gender politics and feminism. Their work more often than not turns into a physical and vocal endurance test. You can find out more at their website… <A HREF="http://krishnaistha.com/about-2/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://krishnaistha.com/about-2/</A>
