Dancing Qweens is a new work by choreographer and drag artist James Welsby (Valerie Hex) exploring 50 years of queer dance history channeled into a highly interactive and surreal experience of queer bodies in motion. 'Same-sex ballroom', 'waacking,' 'voguing,' and 'heels' are styles that have informed this kaleidoscopic take on history that ultimately inquires into the future of queer dance.
