This is a shot from about the calves up, with ‘The Hardman’ on the left and InkBits on the right. They are both white skinned humans. They are standing next to each other, turned slightly inwards. The Hardman has short dark, greying hair, he is wearing a white top with a black shirt on top, and black and tartan pants with zippers in them. He has dark rayban style sunglasses. He has his left hand in his pocket and the other arm by this side, he is smiling at the camera. InkBits has short dark hair, with red colour on top. They are wearing dark framed glasses with yellow lenses and a black t-shirt with a yellow design. They have red pants that end just past their knees. Their hands are in their pockets and their head turned slightly back. They have a number of tattoos on their legs and arms and they have an enquiring expression on their face.

Guy Alias is a white skinned person, he has short black hair and heavy masculine drag makeup. In this image he is standing in some kind of corridor or tunnel that has lines along the sides and roof going towards a horizon point. He is leaning forward playfully with fan veils trailing out in front of him. His body is bend forward and his legs are apart. He is wearing platform boots, short black shorts a white top, a small crown and a some jewellery around his neck. The whole photo has a bluey purple hue across it, making the whole image shades of purple blue and white.

Have you got your ticket for the Queer Variety Show on the 28th of January? Come along to the most chilled show around and be entertained by some of Canberra's most talented Queer and Disabled performers and our allies. Our show is low sensory, and a relaxed show. We ask you do not wear perfume or cologne and that you wear masks if you can. Why? because a lot of disabled people cannot tolerate strong scents and/or we catch 'things' easily. Show your support by masking up. Tickets for our show on the 28th of January are available at Smith's Alternative https://www.smithsalternative.com/events/the-queer-variety-show-8976 In this photo of Catherine-Roisin ‘Tombokko’ Ladelle, she seems to be floating along in space. She is a white skinned woman with shoulder length red hair. She is wearing a leopard print playsuit in hot pink tones, and a hot pink, long sleeved hoodie. Her left arm is stretched out to the side and her right arm is bent with her fingers near her face. She looks a bit like she is looking over her left shoulder. Her left leg is oustretched with a pink shoed, foot that appears to be on the ground, her right leg is bent at the knee with her foot wrapped around her leg.

Mena Paws is an older, white skinned woman with short grey hair and heavy drag makeup. They are wearing a lilac, sequinned dress with lots of different coloured bead and a pair of galah earrings. They are slightly side on to the camera and are in the process of taking off their, large square framed glasses, using both hands. They are looking out over their glasses.

Pictured from the waist up, Velvet Garnet is an olive-skinned woman wearing a white mid-sleeve shirt under a burgundy waistcoat. She looks self-satisfied as she tightens her black bow-tie. Her black and white hair peeks out from her white top-hat, she also wears huge round black-rimmed classes, and triangular black earrings with white cats on them. #QueerVarietyShow #VelvetGarnet #Queer #LGBTIQA #Disabled #Trans #TransFemme #Asexual #Burlesque #CanberraBurlesque #ChronicIllness #CanberraEvents #CanberraLocals

This is a head shot of a pale skinned person. SweetAz is sitting in a car. She has collar length, blonde wavy hair. Her eyes are disguised by dark sunglasses. She is wearing a tan coloured hat and a navy t-shirt, over the top of a navy and white t-shirt. SweetAz has two piercings in the middle of her lips and a silver coloured necklace with a charm shaped like Africa. She is smiling at the camera.

The lovely Lost Larrikin had to pull out of our show on Tuesday due to illness. We have the lovely #SweetAz performing in his place.
