After the enormous success of ‘NIGHT OF THE QUEER 2015’, TAPAC is back for PRIDE FESTIVAL 2016. Don’t miss this extraordinary night of thrilling, fearless, live performance by Auckland’s finest performing artists from our queer-centric community. An entire new show and back by popular demand, NIGHT OF THE QUEER 2016 is programmed alongside AUCKLAND PRIDE FESTIVAL, presenting an abundance of beautifully curated dance, live music, aerial, theatre and comedy. The creative genius of some of Auckland’s finest artists, Drag Kings & Queens, alongside bombshell performances by emerging artists in an intimate cabaret setting will create a unique and diverse world class cabaret for the Auckland Pride Festival. This event is fast becoming a sell-out Auckland event.

Talented performers from all over Auckland hit the stage, supported by a live band under the Musical Direction of Robin Kelly with Directors Margaret-Mary Hollins (TAPAC), Tai Royale, Taane Mete (OKAREKA DANCE CO) and creative team Dan Williams and Tim Williams. NIGHT OF THE QUEER 2016 promises to be an event that boldly celebrates our queer community in style.

The 2016 show will be hosted by the amazing Adam Burrell (Shortland St, K’Rd Strip), NIGHT OF THE QUEER 2016 will feature outstanding acts including; Okareka Dance Company - Tai Royal & Taane Mete, Nancy Wijohn and Kelly Nash, Lady Treneyce, Edward Clendon (Dust Palace), Penny Ashton, Bryony Skillington, and many more.

So book a table, eat, drink, be gay, straight or whatever blows your hair back.

‘NIGHT OF THE QUEER has all the elements of a typical Cabaret – music, song, dance recitation and drama. However, there is nothing typical about it. NIGHT OF THE QUEER is the first fully scintillating, all rounded cabaret production that I have really enjoyed in ages, which well and truly had us sitting on the edge of our seats, both nervous and excited about what was coming next….NIGHT OF THE QUEER is a great production as a theatrical cabaret production… I sincerely hope that NIGHT OF THE QUEER continues to be an annual feature at TAPAC, giving both established and emerging artists the outlet to be themselves and show us how well and truly fabulous they can be.’
