With a performance ritual, Trancestors conjures up the queer trailblazers. Commemorating the 50th anniversary of trans activist Sylvia Rivera's groundbreaking 'Gay Power' speech in New York and the activist movements surrounding the Stonewall uprising, this dance evening also pays tribute to Swiss LGBTQIA+ history, in particular to trans icon Coco.

Together with Aaa Biczysko and composer Lou Drago, Jules Petru Fricker captures the raw energy of queer resistance and explores the intersections of identity, (non-)belonging, resistance and collective memory from a queer perspective. Combining dance, sound and performance, the piece transforms the personal and political struggles of queer, non-cis bodies into a sacred ritual of self-discovery and empowerment.
