A bold queer re-imagining of a timeless tale.
The Red Shoes is an inherently queer story that shines a light on what it means to be true to yourself even in the face of great adversity.
In a climate where our fundamental human rights are increasingly being taken away and our stories are being erased, The Red Shoes in all its unashamed glory is a tale of reclamation that needs to be told and shared.
For the orphan boy in The Red Shoes, his attraction to a pair of red shoes encapsulates his desire to “dance a different dance”. It offers him a glimpse into how wonderful his life could be - a celebratory world of self – if only he was allowed to be true to himself.
