Concept: Taka Taka<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside Amsterdam’s most famous hidden church, there’s more than just an altar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secret Stage brings drag stories to a space that historically revolved around the forbidden. Our Lord in the Attic Museum was built at a time when Catholic worship was criminalised in the Dutch Republic, faith practised in concealed rooms, behind fa\u00e7ades that betrayed nothing. That ritual of showing and hiding, of being visible and then vanishing again, runs strikingly parallel to the performance art of drag. Sometimes loud and present, then again invisible in dangerous times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does drag relate to visibility? Who gets to be seen and when does being seen become an act of resistance?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the centre of the evening are Amsterdam entrepreneur, activist, and drag queen Jennifer Hopelezz and her daughter Vanity Dusk together the face of the Hopelezz family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
