The House

Thursday, September 15, 2022, 7:30 – 8:45pm From the creative team behind the 2021 Piazza hit show — Auntie's Fiafia Night.This year, Meanjin's trailblazing ballroom house, The House of Alexander, reignites South Bank Piazza with their newest show.The House transverses through time and space weaving together ancestral knowledge from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations, the opulent nations of Southeast Asia, and to the archipelagos of the Pacific, back to the queer liberation of the underground ballroom scene in Harlem, New York.Showcasing traditional cultural dances reflecting the way of life and the various sounds across oceans fused with the highly stylised art form of voguing, this show will run like a thread as we remind ourselves of the warm caress of our homelands.Join us, as we voyage together through a night of self-expression and cultural intersection like our city has never seen before!Progressive. Revolutionary. Liberating.Venue: South Bank Piazza, BOQ Festival GardenThis is a Brisbane Festival event Venue: South Bank Parklands, Brisbane City Venue address: South Bank Parklands, Corner Ernest Street, Stanley Street and Grey Street, South Brisbane Parent event: Brisbane Festival Event type: Culture, Music, Performing arts Age range: Teens, Young adults, Adults (30+), Seniors Cost: $35 - $50 Age: Suitable for ages 15+ Bookings: Bookings and more information via the Brisbane Festival website.
