Our staff and @ReconContact #YoungProducers loved being at the brilliant @Transform_Leeds to co-present ColletivA Occupacao in p’ship with @UKTheatreDance @BritishCouncil
"yet again, Transform has changed the way audiences experience Leeds – even if just for the fleeting duration of a performance." #Transform19 reviewed by @CatherineLove21 for @guardian theguardian.com/stage/2019/m…

Today is #LesbianDayOfVisibility, aka Christmas at AwH.
As tis Les Season, here's our wish list:
1. Legal & human rights for LGBTQI+ people worldwide
2. More queer female voices on screen/stage/page
3. More spaces for queer women
4. Inclusivity for queer trans women & queer WOC
