This screening of Rebel Dykes follows a free workshop at DCA – book your tickets now!

Dundee Contemporary Arts are thrilled to welcome producer Siobhan Fahey to DCA Cinema for a live Q&A discussion after the screening.

Rebel Dykes arrives at DCA in all its ass-kicking, leather-wearing glory! This acclaimed documentary tells the story of a group of women who created a community around the first lesbian fetish club in the world, London’s Chain Reaction.

“…exuberant and inspiring”

The Dykes first met at Greenham Common in the 1980s, where they stood out as rebels and daring activists before converging on Brixton’s squatting scene. Taking over women’s centres and gay bars to create a vibrant musical and artistic underground, the group's SM club grew into a close polyamorous community. This brought outcry from mainstream feminists, and the Chain Reaction Dykes were forced to defend themselves against accusations of anti-feminism, violence and more.

This is an extraordinarily privileged glimpse into a bygone world by those who not only lived out their politics with heartfelt conviction but lived to tell the tale. Combining animation, archive footage and interviews, Rebel Dykes is an exuberant and inspiring big screen experience that you won't forget in a hurry.

The perfect mix of performance by professional dancers with an interactive workshop designed for all the family to take part in!

About this event

A Day to Play allows children and young people to be adventurous and explore creativity alongside expert pro dancers. 

The sessions help children and young people to develop their self-confidence through a range of stimulating exercises and encourage problem solving and collaboration with others. From the moment you arrive at A Day to Play until the moment you leave, you are immersed in new, exciting worlds!

A Day to Play is intergenerational so they are suitable for children and young people from the age of 2 to 12 and we would LOVE for families to come along too and join in the playtime with a creative adventure with your kids. Carers, grannies, aunties and best pals are all welcome - the more the merrier! You don't need ANY experience to enjoy A Day to Play so come give it a whirl. 

No workshop is ever the same and there is NOTHING else like this! So, come spend a magical afternoon with Shaper/Caper!
