Dykes on Mics karaoke: 2SER’s Razor’s Edge at Eulogy for the Dyke Bar

2023-03-03

If you are LGBTQI+, there’s really no place to hang out now with other lesbians, just like circa 1980s hangouts. So Sydney’s National Art School (NAS) brought it all back. American artist Macon Reed arrived to dress up the NAS Cafe with their art installation Eulogy for the Dyke Bar, as part of the WorldPride festival, and the rest was a fantastic night of karaoke and nostalgia

Interviewees: Artist Macon Reed and attendees at the packed night

Reporter/Producer: Eleanor Godley
