Trent Queer
Performer Call Out: Drag Show 2018

The annual TQC Drag Show and Cabaret is coming up on Friday, March 30th this year! As usual, we are looking for performers to wow us with their awesome talent and stage presence!

If you perform drag routines, burlesque, acrobatics, or any other performance art such as singing, dancing, acting, or juggling, please get in touch with us! We are always open to having a wide range of performances, and we feel that variety only makes our show even better.

If you are interested in performing, please get in touch with us by March 9th and send us a brief description of your act, any tech requirements, and MP3 files of any music used in your act. Please also include a short biography for our MC to read on stage before your act. (please email trentqueercollective@gmail.com)

This year we invite you all to the one and only "Cirque du So-Gay"! This fantastic circus-themed show is sure to be a wild and fun night you won't want to miss.

Hope to see you there!

Cheers,
The TQC

ReFrame 2017

Hey all!

This year's ReFrame Film Festival is almost upon us! ReFrame is an annual film festival in Peterborough which showcases films from a variety of different social justice issues.

The Trent Queer Collective is sponsoring two films at ReFrame this year (which you should definitely all go and see):

  • MAJOR! - Showing at Showplace on Jan 27 at 2:55 pm.
    A documentary about the life of Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, who has been a strong advocate for trans women of colour for more than 40 years.

  • Two Soft Things, Two Hard Things - Showing at Market Hall on Jan 27 at 11:30 am.
    This documentary examines the erasure of Inuit traditions of sexuality and family structure by colonialism, and a new generation coming together to celebrate LGBT2Q pride in Inuit communities.

If you get the chance, we also recommend going to see Real Boy on Saturday, January 28th! You can also check out the full 2017 ReFrame schedule here.

Tickets are available online through the ReFrame website or in person at the GreenUP store on Aylmer Street.

Hope to see you there!
