Join us in t'ARTopia for a queer-curated night of drag, comedy, poetry, cabaret and music from some of our most delicious t'ARTs.
We have invited some of our favourite performers to entertain you all, at a night that will be nothing short of t'ARTopian.
We will be raising money for gender affirming surgery funds with this evening's raffle, so come with a couple of quid, win art and raise money for good causes!
Doors: 7:15pm
Performances start: 7:30pm
Let's get mouth-watering
t’ART is a queer and trans-led arts and lit collective, that creates space (on the page and in real life) for marginalised voices.
Töpia - Music
Töpia is a UK-based fusion artist blending bossa nova, R&B, and indie-soul into immersive live performances. Backed by her full band, The Homies, she has been performing for over ten years, creating one-of-a-kind shows where audience and band collaborate, sing, and move together. Completely independent and unreleased, Töpia has built her career organically through community jams and live events, including London, Paris, and Los Angeles. Her writing and performance credits include ANAIIS and MRTL, and she has shared the stage with Chaka Khan. Töpia and The Homies deliver full-bodied, intimate, and unforgettable experiences, bringing energy, connection, and joy to every stage they play.
George - Music & Poetry
George is a multi-instrumentalist, sound engineer and hobbyist poet. This is their first solo endeavour as part of a t’art event - expect ambient atmospheric cello soundscapes and musings on love and loss.
JP Seabright - Poetry
JP Seabright (she/they) is a queer disabled writer living in London. They have seven solo pamphlets published and four collaborations, encompassing poetry, prose and experimental work. JP explores themes of gender, sexuality, trauma, technology and the climate crisis in her work, and has been nominated for Pushcart Prize, Best of the Net, Forward Prize, and shortlisted (twice) for a Saboteur Award for Best Collaborative Work. They are co-editor and organiser of the Arts Council England funded project eff-able.
Dick Finder: Private Transvestigator - Comedy
Dick Finder is a private investigator who investigates privates. He is also a buffoon and a public menace.
Returning to T'artopia two years after his debut there, Dick will be giving you a glimpse of his new hour long work-in-progress show coming to the Pen Theatre Bermondsey, 18th July.
Further artists to be announced soon!
