Blackstage Presents: Community

When
Sat 06 Apr 18:30 - 22:30
Age Restriction
18+

Last year we blew everyone’s minds with our jaw-dropping show ‘Rebellion’ where we platformed pole dancers of colour on this ethereal stage in an act of rebellion. This year the theme of our show is ‘Community’.

We as pole dancers of colour share a racialised identity within a world and art form that pretends we don’t matter or even exist. In this year’s show, we’re bringing together our community to celebrate our roots and our excellence without boundaries or restrictions.
Welcome to the real world of pole and its endless range. Thirteen phenomenal pole dance artists will be inviting the audience into their style of pole artistry where each performance is unique. Prepare to be spellbound, fascinated and enraptured!

Blackstage Pole (est 2020) was founded to shed light on marginalised pole dancers who commonly experience erasure, exclusion and other forms of discrimination within the UK Pole Industry.

Blackstage highlights and solely platforms the creativity of BPOC pole dancers, especially those who are also plus-sized, LGBTQIA+, disabled or sex workers.
