PROTEIN returns to the stage in August after a popular Midsumma Festival premier. This sassy laugh-out-loud one-handed comedy promises an energetic and hilarious performance by emerging playwright A. J. Ridefelt. After lockdown, soy-boy Charlie decides to give up pornography and hit the gay dating scene. Sex proves to be a disastrous distraction from self-loathing, and he soon realises that being emotionally unhinged, cynical and bored makes him a difficult romantic candidate. Also, his pet goldfish Bob is horribly depressed.
A. J. Ridefelt is a Melbourne-based writer known for his witty and thought-provoking work. Writing credits include Post A New Musical (Something Blue Productions 2019), Songs of the Northern River (The MC Showroom Hatchery Sponsorship 2019) and Tied Up With Strings (Hope. New Works Development Initiative 2020). “Ridefelt’s writing is absolutely flawless – effortlessly shifting from comedy to heartbreak to hilarious despair to naive hope…” - Australian Arts Review
*Content Warning: contains mature themes, course language and sexual references. Parental discretion recommended for people under the age of 18.
All thanks to our friends at Autonomous Inventions, Bohemian Rhapsody Weekly Magazine is proudly covering the upcoming performance (media Olga Tolkatcheva) please stay tuned for more details,

n 1995, in a pub in London’s King’s Cross, a group of friends discussed the idea of a gay rugby club. From that casual conversation, the first gay rugby team was born – the Kings Cross Steelers. 25 years later, there are 60 clubs worldwide and once every two years they get together for the world tournament of gay rugby – The Bingham Cup. Australian journalist, Eammon Ashton-Atkinson’s heartfelt documentary travels to Amsterdam as the Kings Cross Steelers attempt victory at the 2018 event. Along the way, we get to know some of the team. There’s Drew, prop by day, drag queen by night; Simon, who found a much-needed support system at the club, and head coach Nic, who isn’t shy of shedding a few proud tears when talking about her boys. It’s an inspiring testament to the power of teamwork and friendship.

The Rainbow Lord is presenting the Rainbow Piss Self-Improvement Seminar and will teach you the E-Z-Y as pie steps to take the number one of the skies and make yourself Number One.
Rainbow Piss is the latest heap of dystopian hellscape nightmares and absurdist brain drippings from comedian and host of the 'Ross Purdy Destroys Comedy' podcast Ross Purdy (Late Night Party Boyz, The Improv Pit). 'Like Lars von Trier and David Lynch trying to out-mindf*%k each other.' Great Scott Media

Ding Dong I'm Gay
/https://wintergarden.pictures/portfolio/ding-dong-im-gay/
first release 22 July and then weekly online with season finale on August 19 // FIRST SEASON OF DIGITAL COMEDY SERIES
After moving to Sydney and coming out, Cameron was certain he would be flooded with invitations to parties in tasteful apartments and weekends away with jaw-lined boyfriends who could fly planes and knew CPR. Now, ten years later, Cameron’s hopes and dreams have flatlined. He suspects his pregnant neighbour is stealing his Wi-Fi and his Chinese student flatmate may or may not be a secret agent. When Cameron’s hopelessly naive cousin from Yass arrives with the news that he too is gay, Cameron takes it upon himself to become his gay guru and right the wrongs that were visited upon him by contemporary gay life.
Ding Dong I’m Gay is a comedy web series directed by Sarah Bishop (Skit Box, Wham Bam Thank you ‘Mam) and written by Tim Spencer (Oasis) and Zoe Norton Lodge (The Checkout). A proof of concept pilot was filmed in 2018 with a view to finance and produce a six-episode season.

"Theme of photoshoot: LGBTIQ+ Pride Bullying, Harassment, abuse, discrimination and segregation are aspects of society that affect us all. We should all be accepted and respected for who we are no matter of race, religion, gender or sexual orientation. This was a fun and exciting project to do bringing together all the colours of the rainbow to celebrate our personal rise above adversity. This is a celebration of life through love, colour, food and fun. This photo series highlights the vibrancy and diversity of the LGBTIQ+ rainbow family and that it is to be celebrated out loud and proud. This is us standing together in celebrating love and joy and being strong against those that should do us harm. Always live life true to yourself and shine the way for others to follow your example."
