Episode 8:
On London's Lesbian Renaissance

In this live radio and in-person event at The Divine, Gushing with Gabby: on London’s Lesbian Renaissance, Gabby brought together the hottest and most radical agents in lesbian theirstory today: Alex Loveless, founder of London’s coolest Lesbian bar La Camionera, An(dre)a Spisto, a neuroqueer clown, performance artist and co-producer of Brazilian Wax XXL, a sex-worker led queer Latinx dance party, and Shivani Dave, co-founder of the radically grassroots Dyke March. We explored key questions on the tip of every Lesbian’s tongue: How many exes have you spotted at the lesbian bar? How do you get thousands of hot Dykes to march, ride and dance their way across the streets of London? How many times have I said hot? We explored why the term Lesbian Renaissance is contested, and learned about the queers that have used protest, dance and natural wine to inspire us into politics, protest and poppers.
