“I thought this was fab! Heather did a wonderful job hosting and the writers & performers were excellent and their pieces very varied and interesting. It ran so smooth and professionally.”

“I think this was a flawless event! I cannot think of anything to improve on :)”

“I would literally watch a Queerativity event watching paint dry. Everything is bloody brilliant.”

“The monologue event with the Q&A was an excellent example of the kinds of queer events I’d love to see. Just like what you were saying in the talk – visibility is key. As someone who doesn’t know how to identify yet, or is unsure of what my sexuality is, these events are extremely helpful in connecting with people who express similar experiences.”
