a highly original queercrip production

From Stage Left & SMashing Stereotypes: non-normalizing disability theatre since 1999.

We're putting the sexual politics of disability on full-frontal display - in this contemporary homage to a vaudevillian era, with a few new twists added in along the way.

​Closet Freaks cheekily strips away the spent symbols of "over-coming tragedy" and exposes the barriers two male misfits have to navigate, before they can let loose their lust for each other. 

It's lit a hot spark between them and set their sexual ​sauciness on fire. But will society put its foot down and snuff out their flames? 


Closet Freaks puts that question to bed.

As a dynamic duo in drag, Alan Shain & Troy Emery Twigg crip and queer the body politic, through a raucous celebration of disability as desirability that gleefully disrupts common ideas of just what it means to "man up".
