PROGRAMME
Hosting
Blanket La Goulue
You love her, we love her. Political drag and notorious freak Blanket La Goulue is BTTR royalty by now, and she returns to host you for he 3rd time! Performer, sometimes Mistress of Ceremonies, and often organizer, Blanket changes hats and wigs in order to find their place in a rather narrow community. Halfway between kings and queens, between activism and entertainment, between laughter and anger, they practice a form of drag that evolves with the issues in their daily lives. They offer a version of the story to their liking, without excuse and purely subjective, far from the ambient heteronormativity.
Sarah Bekambo
Sarah Bekambo, a creative talent from Leuven, has made her mark in the Spoken Word scene as both a performer and a writer. She thrives in hip-hop culture, from breaking to MC’ing, and has also excelled as a curator and event organizer. Her infectious enthusiasm and passion for culture make her a dynamic host, captivating audiences with her energy and presence. Whether on stage or behind the scenes, Sarah knows how to turn any event into a memorable experience. In other words, prepare to get TURNT!
