FRESH, EXCITING, SHOW-STOPPING, NEVER-SEEN-BEFORE, GROUNDBREAKING, SOUL-SHAKING, HEARTBREAKING TALENT!
The Enby Show are so excited to announce our new residency at The Glitch in Waterloo providing opportunities for trans and non-binary live performers to experiment, try new stuff or even take to the stage for the first time… Join us every month for a Saturday night party supporting and celebrating some of the freshest and most exciting talent to be taking the performing scene by storm!
We all know trans and enby talent is hugely underrepresented in live performance - we deserve BETTER!! This is a chance to steal the spotlight, show ourselves off, and a safe space where we love chaos and embrace the mistakes. It's a trans-centred fun-funky-fresh night of community, laughing, cheering and finger-snapping with shows and dancing until late.
Basically: let's support and uplift one another so more of us can become superstars and take over the world!
The lineup for each show will be announced in the weeks before the event, so please do keep an eye on our social media for updates and announcements.
We'll also do our best to update the ticket link and have the performers for each show listed below…
Andrea Di Giovanni
Millepertuis
Ethan Mess
Yael Elisheva
Mars The Ass
THE PROCESS AND HOW TO APPLY
Are you a seasoned performer looking to shake things up?? Are you a newbie looking to take to the stage for the first time?? Perhaps you have a big show coming up and would like a chance to try something out…
This opportunity is open to live performers of all kinds, at all levels of experience. Here are some performance disciplines this would be great for, but it is not limited to:
Drag artists
Musicians
Singers
Poets
Actors
Burlesque
Live art
Sideshow
Comedians
…and more, as much as the venue will allow! (sadly we cannot accept fire performers or aerial acts at this time due to venue limitations)
You do not have to be new to performing, nor do you need experience. This is for all levels to experiment, develop and showcase.
You will join us for one workshop session on a Monday evening, 6pm - 8pm, and one showcase variety night on the following Saturday, 8:30pm - 10:30pm. The workshop session will be lead by a trans or non-binary icon working in the industry, who will share some of their knowledge/techniques with you and there will be a chance to try out your work for feedback should you wish to. The Saturday showcases will foster a supportive and encouraging atmosphere - so don't be afraid to take risks and try something new!
You receive a £100 fee for attending the workshop and performing in the show. There may be opportunities to attend the workshop virtually.
To apply, fill out the google form at this link. There is also a section in here for uploading short video or audio applications should you prefer this method. Please make sure you are available for both the workshop session and the showcase night for the dates you outline on the form.
We are an anti-racist, anti-colonial, pro-immigrant collective who believe in active inclusion. We therefore especially encourage applications from those underrepresented in live performance, including disabled people and those from the global majority. We will do everything within our power to cater for access needs we are presented with, please make sure these are outlined in the form.
