SUMMARY:The Gigantic Gay Late Night Game Show
DESCRIPTION:We are going to be honest here\, we have NO IDEA what this is going to end up being… \nWe are locking our Festival creator in a room with some pretty talented people to make it\, but we guarantee the following: chaos\, carnage\, guests stars\, fierce entertainment\, questions\, queerness and a battle for the ages where at this stage\, even we don’t know how we are going to split the teams. \nWe are slapping an R18 rating on this event because with how the world is going\, we just don’t know what the content might be and yea\, the audience participation is going to be relentless. \nGood luck and don’t f*ck it up!

SUMMARY:Queered Scriptless
DESCRIPTION:It’s back\, back\, back\, back again. \nThe sell out every year event that takes the stage like no other show can. It’s Scared Scriptless but through a rainbow lens and yes\, we do have a special guest\, we just can’t quite say who yet. \nQuick witted\, hilarious\, fast paced and a damn good time. Come and be reminded why Scared Scriptless is the longest running improv show in the southern hemisphere – or and come visit us for the first time in the late night slot (but not the *original* late night slot – IYKYK).

SUMMARY:Considering Matthew Shepard
DESCRIPTION:This October the Christchurch Youth Choir is honoured to be performing Craig Hella Johnson’s three-part oratorio “Considering Matthew Shepard”. \nWritten in response to the 1998 murder of Matthew Shepard\, a young\, gay man from Wyoming\, and the events that followed his death\, Johnson seeks to “create\, within a musical framework\, a space for reflection\, consideration\, and unity around his life and legacy”. The work features a collection of poems\, passages from Matt’s personal journal\, writings from his parents\, newspaper reports\, and interviews\, set to an array of musical genres\, including theatre\, jazz\, classical oratorio\, and gospel music. \nMatt’s story and this beautiful work hold a lot of significance for us as a diverse choir of young people and supporters of the LGBTQ+ community. We hope to inspire in our audience the same fire\, joy\, and passion that this work inspires in us — a commitment to fight for a brighter future\, together. \nYou don’t want to miss our most anticipated concert yet! Get your tickets now…
