This event will take place in EartH Theatre.
The Irrepressibles launch the physical and special edition of YO HOMO! - a punk-rock, symphonic, art-rock album of queer joy and sexuality. The live spectacle will feature visuals by leading queer directors Joseph Wilson (UK), Ben Galster (Container Love Berlin), Will Kennedy (UK) and Sam McGuire (US), as well as dancer singers and, of course, The Irrepressibles mini-orchestra, including string section, drums and percussion, piano, electric guitars, and voices. Known for their live spectacles, this will be no exception.
