Riot Acts is a ‘trans-fabulous’ rockumentary representing the multi-dimensional lives of transgender and gender variant musicians. A first-hand perspective of the intersections between gender performance and stage performance, Riot Acts suggests that identities and bodies are undeniably political, and the journey within a trans experience isn’t always one of tragedy, but one of creativity and joy.

The Little Joe Clubhouse is a unique temporary film space from the creators of Little Joe, a magazine about queers and cinema, mostly.

The Clubhouse will host free intimate screenings and discussions, house a carefully curated library and act as a meeting point and social hub over the course of the Fringe! festival. An expanded, interactive version of the magazine, The Little Joe Clubhouse will incorporate an eclectic programme of films as part of Little Joe’s ongoing endeavour to (re)map the queer histories of cinema.

The Clubhouse will be open from 11am to 9pm every day from Friday to Sunday. Entry is completely free, so please come and join us for as much of the programme as you like.
