“Shakedown is an intimate portrait of this community, anchored in the stories of four of its protagonists: Ronnie Ron, the butch creator and emcee of Shakedown; Mahogany, the legendary mother of the scene; Egypt, a single mother, beauty pageant fanatic and dedicated self-(re)inventor; and Jazmyne, the complicated and sometimes conflicted ‘queen’ of Shakedown.”

Having previously been a finalist in the BBC New Comedy Award 2016 and Chortle Student Comedy Awards 2015, Lauren’s debut show Lady Muck earned a nomination for Best Newcomer at the 2017 Edinburgh Comedy Awards and was the best-reviewed show of the festival.”

“Community Activation will look into the social sphere of the queer community. Why do labels exist? Finding your tribe is, for many, a big part of being queer in 2018. This sense of belonging is crucial to those who have been marginalized and isolated. The value of being heard and being around others who don’t question your existence is invaluable and will be explored and celebrated in this collection of shorts. At the same time, they will give insights into the divisions and debates that arise when the incredibly diverse spectrum of queer lives and identities come together as one community.”
