Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World
Cause here she comes. Shes the baddest, bitchin babe of art In 1874 Elizabeth Thompson stuns the Royal Academy with her painting, Roll Call. Five years later, she falls two votes short of becoming the first woman elected to the academy. In between, she must shoulder the hopes and dreams of women across the country including her suffragette sister while fighting for her place at a table full of top hats, ties and mutton chop beards. Theatre, music hall and drag king swagger collide as Modest brings you a Victorian art scene superstar. Performed by a cast featuring the UKs hottest drag talent, this electrifying new play will break your heart and start a revolution. Presented by Middle Child (The Canary and the Crow; All We Ever Wanted Was Everything) in collaboration with Milk Presents (JOAN; Trans Filth; Joy), Modest was developed with the support of the National Theatres Generate programme and is funded by Arts Council England and Hull City Council.
