Join us at The Boardwalk in Glasgow to celebrate queer crip sensual joy - and the release of spicy anthology of queer crip poetry, eff-able.
Expect a night of queer crip spiciness as Glasgow's hottest queer crip drag talent collaborates with the eff-able guys to bring you an erotic extravaganza of cabaret, poetry, and spoken word. Hosted by Himish MacBeth, with performances from Bolly Ditz Dolly and Butch Cashidy, join us to welcome eff-able – an anthology of sweat, sex, and self-love by disabled and queer poets – to the world, bookshelves… and your bed! There’ll be live readings from eff-able contributors Raman Mundair, Éadaoín Lynch, and Dylan McNulty-Holmes, as well as an introduction from co-creators, George Parker and JP Seabright, and the chance to buy a copy of eff-able.
eff-able is published by fourteen poems and is available to pre-order and buy on their website. To learn more about the anthology, the eff-able philosophy, and the poets, visit effable.uk and be sure to follow them on social media.
Please note: there will be no drinks available to buy; please select how many drinks (beer or sof drinks) you want included for the night! There will be tap water available.
