Winner of Best Queer Performance Award (Binge Fringe) at Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2024.
The Disappeared tells the story of a queer voice who is the victim of rigid politics and forced to exile during a government coup in South America. Come along to a wild, fun, sexy and queer cabaret and experience what happens on the night, when a regime change takes place and the world is turned upside down. Be there for the final moments of joy and artistic expression before the burlesque performer is kicked out of their own country.
It is the true story of one persons journey from Chile to Denmark via Mexico to reclaim their voice after having been robbed of both freedom and identity.

Reviews:
The Stage: “Gestures of ritual and resistance are threaded through the show. We are handed pots and pans to bang – a gesture of protest in South America. Accompanied by musician Josh Herring, Nova bears herself and her body, the show building towards a gorgeous ballroom-esque sequence in which she emerges with a pair of beautiful blue fans with trailing fabric tails. The increasingly intense performance is woven with further accounts of brutality and hate crime.”

Theatre Travels:
“The Disappeared is an entirely unique event. It challenges our notions of theatre but not performance. Artistically eclectic, socially purposeful this is an electric event that transports and heals audiences across its 80 minutes.”

The Skinny:
“The Disappeared is an exceptional show highly recommended to anyone with a curiosity in the untold stories of the Latinx people of the Americas – and a taste for the sexy and fierce.”

Binge Fringe:
“The Disappeared is unlike anything else at the Fringe. Visually magnificent and purposeful, it feels like a different world to the one on the outside of the theatre doors. It really feels like South America.”
