Travis Alabanza is a performer, writer and theatre maker who identifies as black, trans feminine and gender non-conforming. They are the youngest person to be awarded a residency at The Tate, the first black trans person to sell out a show at Southbank Centre and have had work featured at the V&A, Roundhouse and, most recently, the Bush Theatre with their play ‘Overflow’. As one of the most prominent emerging trans voices in the arts and beyond, Travis talks to Annie about their journey with change - from wearing a dress on stage for the first time stepping into the role of a Lady Gaga witch at school, to selling out venues with their award winning play Burgerz which sees Travis confronting the audience about their attitude to trans people, after they were called a “tranny” and had a burger thrown at them in broad daylight on waterloo bridge. With their usual charm and warmth, Travis openly discusses attending a summer camp in the US and learning about pronouns for the first time, putting on act, starting and dropping out of University to be an artist, their relationship with their mum and brother and becoming a trans voice in the art world.

In the wake of the coronavirus epidemic and shutting down of much of the UK's cultural life, we have decided to bring you a series of interviews with contemporary artists, writers, filmmakers and other cultural figures, conducted via Skype (so apologies for the diminished audio quality), about their practices, the political issues that inspire them and the socio-economic conditions that have shaped their work. In the eleventh of these Sessions, Juliet talks to performance artist, poet, writer, columnist and theatre-maker Travis Alabanza. They discuss Travis’ performance piece ‘Burgerz, and its path from the Hackney Showroom to the Southbank Centre, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and beyond, and the differences in performing in such venues; their immersive installation ‘All The Ways We Could Grow’ at the Free Word Centre in London; Travis’ performance around the Tate’s Queer British Art exhibition; how to reach different audiences via the mainstream media and through creative practice; the challenges of working in predominantly white and middle-class environments; and the campaign to save the Royal Vauxhall Tavern.

His show is called Get On With It which he describes as an unbiased look at Brexit: light on facts and heavy on casual xenophobia.

They perform from the show Burgerz for Front Row. Fringe of Colour is a grassroots organisation campaigning to make the Edinburgh Festival Fringe less white, more culturally relevant and more welcoming to people of colour.
