The Fresh Meat Festival is outrageously popular for good reason: it showcases stellar transgender and queer talent on a huge scale, and is the only event of its kind in the nation. Due to audience demand, Fresh Meat returns again this year to big, beautiful Theater Artaud. Don’t miss this “Best of San Francisco” award-winning performance!

Motivational speakers, cross-dressing freedom fighters, Craigslist hookups, Filipino gay love songs, a vogue-off, tranny glam rock and songs from the ancestors are just a few of the highlights of this year’s Fresh Meat Festival. And this year, our outrageously popular transgender and queer performance festival is bursting at the seams with world premieres.

This year’s Fresh Meat Festival shines the spotlight on new work, with performances by the Barbary Coast Cloggers, Annie Danger, Sean Dorsey Dance, solidad decosta, D’Lo, StormMiguel Florez, the GAPA Men’s Chorus, Allan Frias Productions, SoliRose and Shawna Virago! All artists perform every night.

The 2010 Fresh Meat Festival brings its biggest lineup ever to Z Space at Theater Artaud, June 17-20. From modern dance to hip hop, freestyle to folk, ceremonial music to roots rock, this year’s festival offers something for everyone with a top-notch roster of transgender and queer trailblazers. These shows sell out quickly: advance tickets are recommended!
