Pink Fringe

Ultimate subversive icon, Peaches, promises to blow minds with her one-woman take on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar (Abbey Theatre, September 20 & 21). Prepare to be nailed to your seat before Mother Club throws the Official Afterparty for disciples.

Past GCN cover star Yemi Azamosa’s Fried Plantains Collective will host Black Jam: Cure (The Complex, September 15), an electric night of spoken word, hip hop, African funk and Irish punk promoting visibility for LGBT+ people of colour.

Karen Cogan’s darkly comedic Drip Feed (Project Arts Centre, September 19 to 22) floats into town on a raft of incredible reviews, delving into the messiness of being young-ish, female and queer in 1990’s Ireland.

The unstoppable Xthony (pictured) goes back to the future with rmation (The Lir Academy, September 17 to 22), a musical Confi memoir and poignant pop concert about growing up gay in Novoting Roscommon.

Spicebag co-founder Stefan Fae teams up with Undercurrent’s Lady K for Overfired (The Complex, September 17 to 21), a queer rattle and stomp through a selection of steamy musical delights.

Unwoman Part III (Samuel Beckett Theatre, September 8 to 16) brings a investigative and accusatory eye to what it means to be ‘unwoman’, from the creators at feminist theatre company The Rabble.

For a full-on laugh-riot check out The Fattest Dancer at St Bernadette’s (The Lir Academy, September 18 to 22), throwing us into the thick of a foul mouthed and fabulous drama school annual showcase disaster.

With all these to catch and more, prepare to spend your pink pounds on the very best an LGBT+ heavy Fringe has to off er.
