Emma Frankland's Extraordinary Acts Cabaret | Homotopia 2025: UPRISING
A night of Extraordinary Acts
| Date Wednesday, 19 November 2025 |
| Time 7.30pm, doors open at 7.15pm |
| Venue Chester Lane Library |
| Tickets £5- £8 |
The Extraordinary Acts Cabaret was first created to launch a zine - raising money for trans healthcare fundraisers (which has, to date, raised over £3,000 for trans people's care!)
The title was reclaimed from transphobic hate speech, which we reject. Emma agrees that trans healthcare is an extraordinary act.. but one of love; community-care; resistance.
As well as celebrating the zine (featuring incredible contributions from queer and trans artists including Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley; Erin Holly and Rory Midhani) for Homotopia: UPRISING, we will present A NIGHT of EXTRAORDINARY ACTS!
Hosted by Brighton based cabaret legend Emma Frankland ("the punk rock angel of your dreams and nightmares" The Stage) this edition will feature performances from incredible drag performer and spoken word artist Subira Joy ("their work weaves together the personal and political - spoken with rage, softness and laughter") and Blackpool icon Harry Clayton-Wright ("A delectably disruptive force in theatre, film and installation. - Attitude Magazine") as well as more acts to be announced soon.
Zines will be available to purchase from Emma at the performance with all proceeds going to local trans healthcare fundraisers!
Need to Know:Info: 18+. Free hot and cold refreshments will be available during the interval. Address: Chester Lane Library, Four Acre Lane, WA9 4DE
