Gender Criminal is a drag(ish) artist, host, and director whose work blurs the lines between performance, resistance, and joy. Known affectionately as the Bristol Hypeman and South West Scoundrel, they bring a mix of wit, warmth, and subversion to every stage. As the proud dad of the House of Boussé and TRANS/FORM, Gender Criminal cultivates creative spaces where trans and queer expression can thrive, much like their self-described mycelial networks—interconnected, ever-growing, and impossible to uproot.

PLUS: The Cube Cinema here in Bristol is about to bring us the fourth instalment of Gay Sex Tuesday on Tuesday 18th November. Bruce Guthrie has been talking to Cube volunteer, Ed Jack, and L A based film archivist, Frank Jaffe from Altered Innocence films.
