Disco, appelsienen en activisme

OUT is an interdisciplinary performance created by performance maker Ray Young with dance artist Dwayne Antony, now performed by Azara Meghie and Bambi Jordan Philips.

Inspired by personal experiences and ongoing global struggles for LGBTQIA+ rights, OUT combines live art practice with elements of Dancehall and Voguing, presenting a defiant challenge to homophobia and transphobia. Bravely embracing personal, political, and cultural dissonance, OUT carves out a new space to reimagine, reclaim, and celebrate aspects of Caribbean culture from a queer perspective.
