Taib: Queer Ethiopian-Kenyan (Canada)
Q. How do you think your style incorporates/blends elements of your African and LGBTQ identity?
“Just recently I have been trying to incorporate more of my African heritage into my attire. Access to African elements from my heritage has always been a challenge living in the ‘great white north’. Besides the occasional gifts from my grandma from Kenya I really didn’t have much to go on. This past year I have had the opportunity to live and work in East Africa and have collected items along the way. I try to mix different elements into both my professional and casual wear.
Given the right circumstances, I like to flirt with aspects of femininity and masculinity. I like subtle accents like a dangly earring on one ear with the occasional application of eyeliner, and accent (s) of colour.”
– Taib (Queer Ethiopian-Kenyan, He/Him)

About Limit(less)
Limit(less) is a photography project by Mikael Owunna (@owning-my-truth) documenting the fashion and style of LGBTQ African Immigrants (1st and 2nd generation) in diaspora. As LGBTQ Africans, we are constantly told that being LGBTQ is somehow “un-African,” and this rhetoric is a regular part of homophobic and transphobic discourse in African communities. This line of thinking, however, is patently false and exists an artifact of colonization of the African continent. Identities which would now be categorized as “LGBTQ” have always existed, and being LGBTQ does not make us “less” African.
Limit(less) explores how LGBTQ African immigrants navigate their identities and find ways to overcome the supposed “tension” between their LGBTQ and African identities through their fashion and style. The project seeks to visually deconstruct the colonial binary that has been set up between LGBTQ and African identities, which erases the lives and experiences of LGBTQ Africans. #LimitlessAfricans

After Dark Matter last year’s sold out performance that was supported by the Arts Council of England, Vertebra returns to Etcetera Theatre with Oscar a brand new puppetry performance that explores queer identity through visual imagery and devised texts inspired by Oscar Wilde’s life and work.
In Oscar, 22-23 August at the Etcetera Theatre at 6.30pm, they use a mixture of puppetry styles, garbage film and physical theatre to bring to life contemporary stories of gender questioning.
They aim to engage young adults in quest of their personal identity, sexuality and finding ways of self-acceptance. This puppetry performance aims to raise awareness of LGBTQ issues among young people and adult audience within communities.
This is a work in progress show that has been already part of the Incubate Research and Development Laboratory of the Little Angel Theatre.
“This is a company to watch as they grow, with a gift for creating unusual and inventive stories,” Laura Kressly.
Reviews for their previous show Dark Matter:
“The fantastical portrayals of dementia are visually arresting. Sharp physical theatre and compelling puppetry,” Everything Theatre.
“The delight of Dark Matter is that it harnesses everything puppetry has to offer,” A Younger Theatre.

It’s 1966. Legendary soap opera ‘Sellotape Sisters’ (the pretensions of ‘Downton,’ the production values of ‘Crossroads’) has been cancelled.
With no ideas left for the last, live episode, the writers raid the actors’ private lives for storylines. In shock and denial, and with the final broadcast looming and an expected twenty-two million viewers tuning in, will the cast stick to the script?
Find out as ‘Noises Off’ meets ‘The Killing of Sister George’ (via ‘Acorn Antiques’) in this outrageous, farcical and ultimately heartfelt new play from former ‘Coronation Street’ storyliner Lee Mattinson, brought to you by comedy specialists Signal Theatre.
