Event Description

We welcome you to Queer Dance Freakout University! Here at QDFU we prioritize an interdisciplinary approach in all subjects, meaning you’ll study similar themes no matter what department you’re in. Join a group of students transferring to QDFU and explore gender and identity from the lenses of Science, Literature, and History.

Queer Dance Freakout is an interactive performance spectacle! This company of queer, trans, and nonbinary choreographers and storytellers will perform a variety of devised, dance, and performance art pieces that will have audiences booty-shaking, grooving, and connecting with the queer community. The audience adds singles and playlists to the queue by voting for the dances they want to see. Queer Dance Freakout is ever-changing as each performance the company writes and choreographs new pieces so no Freakout is the same as before.

Unfortunately, this venue is not ADA accessible as it is up two flights of stairs with a landing. Seating is first come first served. If you are unable to stand for the length of the performance (60 minutes), please make note of this in your ticket order and we will happily reserve a seat for you. Also feel free to email moore@genderfucked.org with any access needs and we will do our best to accommodate.

Our tickets are sliding scale for accessibility. If you are unable to pay the base price, we offer subsidized ticket price for low-income individuals and members of the BIPOC or TGNC community. If the discounted rate is not within reach, please email dawn@genderfucked.org the level of assistance you need and we will happily accommodate (we can slide to zero for community members).

Masks will be required and provided for all audience members at the door! Performers test before the show and will be unmasked.

Queer Dance Freakout is recommended for ages 16 and up. This performance will include the following sensitive material. A list will be available closer to the show.

The company encourages all audience members to take care of themselves however they may need to during the show–including exiting the space, saying no to participating in interactive numbers, getting up to stretch or use the restroom, etc.
