Rainbow History Class: Live Show
It’s time to brush up on the LGBTQIA+ history not taught in school with Tik Tok sensation Rainbow History Class
Created by Rudy Jean Rigg and Hannah McElhinney
In the Rainbow History Class live classroom, teacher Rudy Jean Rigg and writer/researcher Hannah McElhinney leave the internet behind and bring the history of the LGBTQIA+ community to life IRL in an evening of celebratory storytelling.
From the origins of Mardi Gras, to the reason Alice Springs became a lesbian hotspot, and the time gay slang sent the US military on a wild goose chase, Rainbow History Class live classroom is one class you don’t want to skip.
Homework: optional.
Detention: never.
Glitter: always.

Darlo Pay What You Can Tickets
Theatre isn't always accessible, but it should be. It puts up further barriers to historically excluded groups being part of the show. So, we have reserved four (4) tickets for each performance for those who face social barriers to attending theatre, especially those who identify as Indigenous and/or Black and/or People of Colour, those who identify as transgender and gender diverse, those experiencing disability or those experiencing economic hardship. To access these tickets, please contact jacqueline@darlinghursttheatre.com
