Sue Pertrouper interviewed Alice and Fox about the ramifications of the UKSC judgment, and the EHRC's proposed guidance.

We are here to educate, inform, and build capacity for the community - as well as entertain!

We were most blessed to have Sue Pertrouper host, with guest acts from Hot Pot, Packin Heat (Tommy Gun and AJ 47), TRASH!, and Liv Vicariously. All members of the LAD network! Oh, and Alice Aforethought and Fox Populi!

The audience laughed, cheered, gasped, and basically had a camp old time of it

Last night, Law's a Drag held its first ever CABARET!

We mixed lip syncs, comedy, and dance with a Q&A on the For Woman Scotland UKSC judgment, providing info about how it will affect equality law, and the lives of drag artists, and trans, nonbinary, intersex, and cis people in the UK

Drag Artists! "Law's a Drag" needs YOU!

Law's a Drag is a network of drag artists, lawyers, and academics working to find out more about how drag artists experience law and injustice: including contract or employment disputes, copyright confusion, discrimination, and more besides!
February 17, 2025 at 12:23 PM
We're extending the deadline to 6th February! We're looking for drag artists to answer this short, anonymous survey. Please like, share, and spread the word!
January 21, 2025 at 1:38 PM
✨️Call for participants!✨️

We're running a survey to ask drag artists about their experiences and thoughts of working with academics.

Responses will be anonymous and will help us put together a forum theatre piece on drag and legal research for an event we're holding in April!

Law’s A Drag is incredibly sad to hear of the passing of James Lee Williams, known as The Vivienne. Our thoughts are with their family and friends at this difficult time.

Rest in peace, pride, and power, The Vivienne

At the end of each week, I write down nice things that have happened on a post-it note. Everything from silly things friends have said that made me laugh, through to parties, promotions, or big life events. At the end of the year, I have 52 reminders of reasons to be cheerful. All the best for 2024!
