Border Force

Thu 14 May 2015

Queering the Borders for Brighton Pride 2015

Border Force is an immersive nightclub & disko-show about freedom of movement. 

Enter a globalised clubland where we confront xenophobia, challenge the idea of national identity and queer the borders.

Get your Duckie passport and visit 'Brazil', 'Russia', 'India' & 'China'...
