“My mother worked in the fashion district of Little Collins Street and whenever possible she would go to the Tivoli Theatre. As a non-binary child I was eager embraced both of her passions. From a young age learnt all I could about the art of couture fashion and it love of theatre - even taking me to see Australian theatre legend Toni Lamond 1966.
As a result I have spent much of my life dressing up and hanging out in theatres, burlesque clubs. Becoming enchanted, entranced and entrenched in a life made richer by the whit and beauty of showgirl/showboys of all genders.
Having entered my first discotheque aged 16 I haven't stopped dancing yet. Like many queer people it was on the dancefloor I found my artistic, queer logical family. They nurtured me and helped me experience the wealth of queer, alternative culture out there and step-by-step move towards my true authentic self. I owe a lot to my elder liberationists and the feminine powerful goddesses of every gender teaching a healing and gentler way of being, at my age my mentors are my juniors, my teachers.”
