22 Jul Powerhouse: Late with Queer Screen
Join us at Powerhouse: Late
Powerhouse Museum, 500 Harris St, Ultimo
Exploring queer narratives through a multitude of lenses, we are presenting interactive panel discussions, a queer disco with familiar faces from the community and plenty more.
Plus listen to the Sydney Cello Quartet playing musical arrangements of queer film favourites.
Entry is free and no bookings are required. We’d love to see you there!
Our VR experience will feature IOPU
Moment and memory blend as you bear witness to a Samoan rite of passage. IOPU takes you behind the curtain of a resplendent theatre as you follow a queer Samoan-Australian performer who is about to take the stage. Through drama, dress and dance, this VR experience explores the themes of alienation, acceptance and finding our own tribe.

Join Bec Shaw, Laurence Barber, Durr-e-‘Adan Haque and moderator, Alexei Toliopoulos to discuss this very situation and find out which films are faves and turkeys for them.
