Kitty Obsidian
Kitty Obsidian is “an outstanding performer and teacher in the Burlesque and Drag space over the past 12 years.” A proud Wiradjuri/Kamilaroi trans, disabled, and fAboriginal artist, Kitty uses storytelling to platform “queer and trans rights, disability, awareness and body acceptance/diversity.”
They are “one of a very small group of diverse trans disabled performers that represent our mob,” and are often “the only BIPOC person in performances or a person with a disability.”
Kitty mentors young LGBTQIA+ and First Nations performers and brings marginalised voices into spaces “they are not traditionally accepted in.”
