Arts and Culture: Performance
by Pride History Group
With professional choreographers and dancers from the Tivoli circuit teaching young drag artists, and inspired producer/entrepreneurs creating hilarious routines and shows with a narrative, Sydney siders were treated to the best Burlesque shows in town. David (Beatrice) Williams describes one of his shows at the Purple Onion.
The Gay Liberation Quire and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence entertained and energised gay movement events in the 1980s. Fabian LoSchiavo tells how the San Franciscan model of the Sisters was transformed by the Sydney Order.
