ACEtravaganza BY ARTEMIS MUÑOZ & NIKKI VIVECA
ACEtravaganza is a variety show featuring Melbourne’s best asexual and aspec artists curated by comedienne and poet Nikki Viveca (Asexual Healing) and theatre and cabaret artist Artemis Muñoz (Asexy: Proud To Be Me). This show puts the invisible orientation centre stage in a joyful celebration full of story, song and more! The work is presented entirely by aspec artists, reflecting a perspective seldom seen on stage. More than a show, in a queering of the variety night tradition ACEtravaganza is also a community gathering, visual arts showcase and big ol’ ace party! Featuring first-time creatives alongside established artists, ACEtravaganza explodes stereotypes about the asexual community and boldly claims space for a group that is often erased from representations of queerness.
