The Age of Consent
Bronski Beat’s defiant debut album, live and reimagined through the voices of ground-breaking queer and trans contemporary artists including Planningtorock, Tom Rasmussen and Bishi.
A piece of musical and political history from 1980s Britain, The Age of Consent is presented as you’ve never heard it before. This show features a powerhouse line-up including Planningtorock, Tom Rasmussen and Bishi, plus more to be announced. Backed by The Chateau Collective; a specially curated queer house band performing bold new arrangements of the record, including Smalltown Boy and Why.
An unashamed portrait of radical queerness in 1980s Britain, this record marked a pivotal moment in LGBTIQA+ cultural history, acting as a beacon of hope for a generation of disenfranchised youth. Originally staged in 2024 to celebrate the record’s 40th anniversary, The Age of Consent is now back by popular demand, re-energised and revitalised.
Join us for a musical celebration, and a collective call to action for the work still to be done in the fight for queer and trans liberation.
