My heart rushes to every parent of a trans child this evening. I know you are desperate to keep your child healthy, alive in the face of Labour's onslaught. Anne Health does good work. But, if your child is vulnerable and you can it is worth considering leaving. Things here are getting worse fast.

Drop us a message if you have queries or questions, we are super friendly and we love to help!

We'll let you know about upcoming events, ask for your ideas and thoughts about potential projects and collaborations, and help make a brighter gayer future together!

We have historians, software engineers, clowns, feminists, students, barristers and accountants. Everyone lovely is welcome!

Are you an academic, lawyer, drag artist, or someone interested in any of these areas!?

There's never been a better time to join Law's a Drag!

We want to have more artists, experts, drag fans, and queer joy in our network.

Law's a Drag History of Love cast selfie! Featuring Alice Aforethought (pink wig, moustache), Pop Tart (tall, houndstooth outfit, abstract art makeup), Fox Populi (pink and blue hair, sequin jacket), Laila Gaga Parker (black bob, flapper dress), Mattress (platinum wig, stunning), Pembo (crimson wig, metallic bodsuit), and Fae Fatale (orange wig, corset, black jacket). All smiling and looking gorgeous

The main lesson: progress is not linear, the fight for freedom is ongoing, and the law is a fickle mistress!

Thanks to our tech support, our drag tip token salesperson Susan, our performers, and our beautiful audience!

Wide angle shot of Alice Aforethought (James in a black top and shirt, pink wig and shoes, holding a script by a mic) and Fox Populi (Rosie in a rainbow sequin jacket, pink and blue hair), narrating the queer legal history and engaging with the audience

Between those acts, our dragademic hosts @aliceaforethought.bsky.social and @drfoxpopuli.bsky.social narrated a legal history that included the Buggery Act, the trials of Oscar Wilde, the Bloomsbury set, Alan Turing, the Wolfenden Report, civil partnerships, gay marriage, and more

Pop Tart, in houndstooth body suit and cape and red gloves and boots, white conceptual face make-up, performing on stage. Vivid, striking, artistic

Haus of Reason on stage, with Pembo doing the splits in the middle, in a red dress with a big love heart motif - gorgeous, amazing

Mattress and Laila dancing in stage, both looking beautiful, with arms raised in a dynamic shot

Mattress and Laila flanking Pembo, who is twisted in a deep limbo manoeuvre in this action shot of them dancing onstage

Themed on queer love and law through the centuries, our drag artists performed lip syncs, dance numbers, and live singing to our wonderful audience.

Thanks to Hyde Park Book Club for hosting the show!

An important takeaway – the High Court has made clear that the Code of Practice has gotten the law wrong. It will need to be rejected by the Minister.
