Voicebox: LGBTQ+

This pride month we're celebrating the 50th anniversary since Stonewall by showing a spotlight on queer figures that we find inspirational...here's a snap shot at the incredible work Halsey does to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights around the globe.

We must not underestimate the importance of an out and proud LGBT+ singer like Hayley Kiyoko.

Discussion of controversy of gender roles and LGBTQ+ representation in the dance world. 

Short feature on a 21-year-old student who works as a drag queen. 

Matthew Perry works as a host in a nightclub, where he dresses as a drag queen named Tequila Addams. His drag persona is very unique as he paints eccentric designs on his face rather than just a traditional drag queen make up. He taught himself to make these amazing facial art looks.

Nowadays, we see a lot of drag queen performers on mainstream media, but we do not see the hard working side of a drag queen trying to break into the industry. Matthew stands out because he juggles his life between his fashion management studies at the University of the Arts London and his nightlife work as Tequila Addams.

Norwich Pride celebrated its 10th anniversary this year and we spoke to Nick O'Brien, who helped start it. This interview was conducted at the end of July. 

A hilarious and heartwarming show filled with sparkles, sass and a serious message

A joyous, harmonious, sexy celebration of being yourself

Whilst Pride season is all fun and games, it creates a mask that hides the issues that exist within the LGBTQ+ community.
