This event has passed
Overview
*EVENT CANCELLED*
We are very sorry to share that unfortunately Sound Cistem by Plaster Cast, due to be performed as part of Curious Festival 2022, has been cancelled.
Plaster Cast have shared the following statement:
We are so sorry to say, but due to unforeseen circumstances, Plaster Cast is no longer able to be part of Curious Festival at Northern Stage. We really hope any audience members enjoy the rest of the festival, and we hope to return to Curious Festival and Newcastle soon.
If you’d booked to join us, we hope that you might consider moving your ticket to one of our Queer Change Showcases on Thu 14 & Fri 15 July. Two exciting evenings of brand new performances by early career LGBTQIA+ artists, and you get two shows for the price of one!

Two transgender performers say ‘up yours’ to the gender binary, and invite you to their radical dance party!
Under disco lights, over pulsing music, a queer celebration takes place. Set in nightclubs, Sound Cistem is a joyous verbatim show about the cisgender gaze on the transgender body and asks you to see the beauty in these bodies, and your own too.
