After sold-out, smash-hit seasons in Sydney, THEY WILL BE KINGS is heading to Fed Square for a free performance and panel conversation, celebrating the art and activism of Drag Kings.

Created by acclaimed theatre-maker Kaz Therese and The King Coach, Danica Lani, this ground-breaking performance dives deep into the politics of joy, power, and gender, through the lens of trans masc, nonbinary and lesbian Drag Kings.

Presented by Cre8ion, WEREWOLF & Kings of Joy, THEY WILL BE KINGS unites some of Australia’s most exciting and critical trans activists, Drag King performers and award-winning artists to rewrite the queer history of 21st Century Australia.

The show will be followed by a panel discussion between local and Sydney-based Drag Kings – line up to follow.

Join the revolution. Celebrate the Kings.

Free registerations will open on the Midsumma website from 7pm on 24 November.

This event is presented as part of Open Air at the Square.
