Remythed reimagines and retells the stories of famous and forgotten LGBTQIA+ figures from the past, reshaping what queer history could look like and putting queer joy in the front and centre of the narrative.
Five actors play more than 30 characters, including Sheherazade and Lady Godiva, blending their own stories and cultures with the lives of these myths and legends.
Rejecting typical painful representations of queer history, the show tells uplifting and feel-good stories of friendship, humility and finding love and community, allowing audiences to envision queer history in a new light.
