Besharam [Shame-LESS]

Wed 7 – Sat 10 Jun | 7.30pm | Pay What You Decide

SHAME: The Final Frontier

These are the voyages of the star ship Besharam [Shame-LESS]

Join Captain Sid Akbar, on a mission to explore cultural identity, to seek out an open, queer life, to boldly F*** what other people think, and choose to be themselves.

Besharam [Shame-LESS] tells a personal and political story in a playful and honest way; a story of growing up in Bradford, wishing it was safe and acceptable to be yourself, and wondering if the future you long for is just science fiction.

Sid faces reality, explores alternatives, and explodes the limitations of family, faith and culture. Beyond shame are survival, healing and fabulous rainbows of possibility.  Join Sid’s journey, to take up space like no queer, brown, Bradfordian has done before.

Besharam [Shame-LESS] is the debut show of Dhamaka Arts, commissioned by Bradford Producing Hub Make Work, with funding support from Bradford City Council and Arts Council England. 

Note – contains strong language and sensitive themes that may not be suitable for some audiences.

Wed 7 – Sat 10 Jun | 7.30pm | Pay What You Decide

This event is Pay What You Decide, which means you don’t have to pay until after you have seen the event.

Pay What You Decide not only allows you to pay what you can afford, rather than a fixed ticket price, but also removes the financial risk of buying a ticket for an event in advance without knowing whether you are going to enjoy it or not.

Tickets are available to book in advance as usual, but there is no obligation for you to pay until after you have seen the event. You can then decide on a price which you think is suitable based on your experience, which means if you haven’t enjoyed it at all, you don’t have to pay anything.

Please ensure you have arrived and collected your tickets 15 minutes before the event starts in order to secure your seats. At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, either by cash or card on the door.
