Thursday
In this Month of Rainbows, The Bearded Tit is showing off a bit of leg. In September 2017, the inaugural Miss First Nations Drag Pageant was held in Darwin, NT. Six queens from around Australia descended upon the town to compete for the crown over five steamy days and documentary Black Divaz was filmed amongst the glitz, glamour and flurry of hair and hot glue guns. This show celebrates the making of that film and the personal journeys that brought each contestant to the glittering stage. It’s time to meet your Miss First Nations.
Join Aunty Jacinta Tobin and Joel Davison as they explore one of the first dialects spoken in the Sydney area, the Darug language. Run as part of Sydney Festival, this one-hour free class delves into the language in a celebration of Indigenous heritage.
