Elevan O'Clock #33 Mama Alto part 3

Here is the last part of the episodes with the amazing Mama Alto.  Here we talk about Mama's personal art and music practice.  I would like to thank Mama for the sheer honesty and bravery in our conversation.

Elevan O'Clock #32 Mama Alto part 2

This is the second part of my discussion with the incomparable Mama Alto.  It is a discussion about politics and like everything Mama does it is deeply fascinating.

Elevan O'Clock #31 Mama Alto part 1

The best description for Mama Alto comes directly from the biography on Mama's website - "Mama Alto is a gender transcendent diva, cabaret artiste, jazz singer and community activist."  Mama is also extremely fascinating to converse with.  Our chat went for over two hours and so there are three episodes of our conversation. We discuss art, politics and Mama's inspirations.  Mama is a joy to spend time with,  and I hope you enjoy the time you get to spend listening to her.

Elevan O'Clock #30 - Ruby Slippers

In this episode, I talk to the amazing Ruby Slippers. She is a stunning gender clown burlesque performer.  We talk about performing, body politics and the wonders of mix and match fashion - she dressed me in a fez and a kimono - and I was super happy to wear them.

Anna is the second member of the Almost Lesbian comedy show.  Her and Sophie are at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.  In this episode we gender, transitioning and where she developed her quick wit.
