Paper Privilege (live) follows the launch of Bard The Beholder’s new podcast of the same name, but transforms the stage into a shared space for performer and audience members.
This is a live show/workshop which explores what it means to have intersections of identity. By featuring global majority performers and inviting audiences to respond to the art live via guided prompts led by drag artist Bard The Beholder, the night becomes a blend of scratch performance and live drawing.
Bard The Beholder (he/they) is London’s masked extraterrestrial drag creature conjuring worlds within words. Using eco-conscious costuming, stand-up comedy, and movement, Bard engages themes of migration, history and horror to explore their lived experience as a South-East Asian transmasculine person.
As seen in The Vault’s Witches of Oz and Mulan Rouge, as well as cabaret’s finest shows by The Enby Show, The Bitten Peach, and beyond… hide your skinsuits and tales of old, Bard will consume tales for you to behold.
