For Trough 02 we travel around the corner to another sacred arch of London's Thameslink Service - Loki. Newly refurbished by the glorious team behind The Cheeky Soundsystem & making use of their eponymous soundsystem to boot - the dance will go from 21:00 - 3:30
The evenings danceables will come in the form of a live-sampling dance performance from Lorea Burge, trumpet & electronics loops from Dunce, you know what to expect from Esther, & a crafted slinky, sexed-up cut and body-led set from Jay Duncan to finish. Trough Residents will be filling in the gaps.
All profits from the night will go towards Gendered Intelligence - a trans-led and trans-involving charity that works to increase understandings of gender diversity and improve the lives of trans people.
Following the UK Supreme Court's abhorrent ruling we've decided to fund Gendered Intelligence and give support to those in need in our trans communities.
This decision comes as part of the government's long-standing tradition of scapegoating marginalised communities to distract from its own failings. With a government actively eroding basic freedoms and giving complacency to the wars, genocide, climate catastrophe & economic breakdown that we face they have now decided to target another marginalised & at risk group to once again to divert attention from their own failings. We stand with all marginalised communities against this and any further abhorrent rulings this government attempts to enact.
