TELL, a queer storytelling show

RSVP FOR THIS EVENT HERE
Hosted and curated by Drae Campbell, join us at The Bureau for an evening of queer storytelling. This month’s theme is “Constants”. Joined by comic Calvin Cato, artist and prison abolitionist Léoh Hailu-Ghermay, and theatre artist Gagarin, come hear the chaos and the comedy that unites us in our queerness. We’ve all got those stories. Let’s tell them.
