From Prejudice To Pride
at the
Gloria Digital Pride Festival
Who were the sex loving, law breaking, fast riding, leather wearing, tattooed Rebel Dykes?
Karen created her one-woman-musical which traces back through 40 years of Gay Prides from outside the conventional margins of society. From squats to demos, Karen Fisch has been on the frontline of the wild, hidden London world of lesbian life, love, sex, clubbing and protesting.
Through her hilarious and heart-breaking anecdotes and songs, Karen brings to life the extraordinary story of her past. Expect a sing-a-long, a chant and tears of both sadness and joy.
Directed by Barbara Houseman and originally called Rebel Dyke, From Pride To Prejudice was nominated for Best New Act and Best Arts Event at LFest 2018 & 2019.

DIVA MAG REVIEW
"Frankie Sinatra’s drag king night Kings of Clubs has become a well-established must-attend cabaret night on the scene. Borne from inspiration at the emergence of drag king talent, Frankie has created a welcome, inclusive event that showcases the best of the acts from around the world, old and new.
Starting with banging queer favourite tunes from Stav B, Frankie steps suavely onto the stage to offer a warm welcome to the acts and audience alike..."
