Queerstories invites storytellers to share the tale they want to tell, but are never asked to, without agenda, without the burden of explaining oneself for a questioning mainstream. From a community that’s constantly grappling with gender, a process simultaneously fascinating and frustrating, what will we hear when we ask for a story ‘all about women’?
Queerstories celebrates the culture and creativity of the LGBTQI+ community, one true story at a time. A national storytelling project directed by Maeve Marsden, Queerstories has sold out at festivals and independent venues around the country, with a book and an award-winning podcast boasting more than 300 stories.
First broadcast Sunday March 13 2022.
Duration: approx 75 minutes.
