Untucked

Untucked is a new film series that explores the narratives of gender and transition through film. Each installation of Untucked will explore a different film, curated for its unique exploration of gender, for better or worse. From popular classics to deep cult favourites, from LGBTQ+ heroes to comedic faux-pas, Untucked traces the history of gender exploration through the 20th Century’s most prolific and impactful medium.

Each screening will begin with a comedic introduction by the series curator (transgender comedian Alice Rose) in an ongoing conversation about the films that impact and articulate the trans experience. After the film, feel free to join us for a cocktail and informal dialogue with the host.

Alice Rose is a comedian, producer, and trivia host. Her live shows have been part of JFL42, and she has performed at Comedy Bar, Absolute Comedy, and TO SketchFest. She currently produces It’s A Black & Queer Comedy Show with co-host Chris Sarpong, a show that attempts to undo some of the damage Dave Chapelle’s later specials have done.
