The image features two individuals standing in front of a vibrant red curtain with dramatic lighting. One person on the left has a long, messy pink wig, wearing a bandana and a loose top with handwritten text.

A red broken heart against a black background. The text on the heart reads 'HOMO FOMO'.
A cartoon doorway against a black background. Through the doorway are silhouettes of figures dancing. The light spills out beyond the doorway, and the shadows of the dancers form the words 'HOMO FOMO'.

We are very bad queers.

Some of us are afraid of dancing. Some of us don’t like ABBA. Some of us are old and out of fashion. Some of us just don’t get drag. Some of us are too femme. Some of us are too serious. Some of us have never been in fashion. Some of us really don’t 'love the nightlife'.

HOMO FOMO is a show exploring the rules that dictate ‘how to be a queer person’ and the ways they become fixed over time through repetition. It’s about nightclubs, which are more complex than usual representations of glitter, mirror balls and sweaty bodies suggest. We want to know: what do these rules do and what happens if you break them?

HOMO FOMO draws on intergenerational queer experiences to ask what it means to be part of ‘the queer community’ today, or indeed to feel that you are missing out on it.
