Tranny Hotel
Weekend Pass £20
Following a highly successful trial run in Cologne, Germany in June 2011, Tranny Hotel saunters in to Liverpool for weekend long celebration of Transgender arts, organised by renowned Liverpool based Transgender artist Mandy Romero. The event will see dozens of transgender artists, both male to female and female to male, from across the globe, perform a wealth of different works in numerous spaces around the hotel from bedrooms and suites, to staircases, hallways and function rooms.
The event forms part of the Europe wide Exchange Radical Moments! Live Art Festival, to take place on Fri 11 November, or 11.11.11, across the continent. Liverpool is the only city outside London to have an Exchange Radical Moments! event, largely due to the uniqueness of Tranny Hotel. It will also be a part of this year’s Homotopia Festival of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender culture.
Renowned Transgender performers and artists will be flying in from across the globe to perform at the event with is the biggest Transgender event in the UK for 2011. Acts include accomplished Scottish transsexual playwright Jo Clifford, who brings her highly controversial piece ’The Gospel According to Jesus Queen of Heaven’, an early version of which was originally performed at the Glasgay festival in 2009. The piece will see small audiences meeting and interacting with Queen Jesus in a hotel room throughout the weekend. Spanish artist REgina Fiz’ will perform her critically acclaimed piece ‘The Ritual Wedding’ which also demands an intimate audience in an intimate space. The ritual wedding draws on tradition and precise ritual, and will leave the audience taking away a completely personal encounter through evoking memories and past emotions.
