« Diaspora Pop » avec Soa de Muse, Shei Tan et Mami Watta au Festival Everybody !

An Afro-futurist cabaret with Soa de Muse, Shei Tan and Mami Watta, winner of season 1 of Drag Race France All Stars, and special guests!

A groundbreaking artistic initiative, Diaspora Pop blends Afrofuturism, a celebration of Black excellence, and a cabaret format showcasing local artists. By exploring Afrofuturism, the project transforms history through an artistic lens, building new mythologies that liberate people from the oppressive stereotypes that have held racialized communities back.

A multidisciplinary artist (burlesque, theatre and contemporary dance), Soa de Muse distinguished herself through her participation in Drag Race France (S01), Drag Race Global All Stars (S01) and the launch of the Cabaret La Bouche alongside other key figures of the Parisian queer scene.

In Diaspora Pop , she imagines a queer and activist Afro-futurist cabaret with Shei Tan and Mami Watta. The three artists claim to be the heirs of William Dorsey Swann, a former Black American slave, LGBTQIA+ rights activist, and the first person to identify as a drag queen in the ^19th century.

Their performance is intended as an act of celebration and resistance. Moments of dance, lip-syncing , and energetic, extravagant showmanship alternate with more intimate spoken passages, where they reveal their vulnerability with subtlety and beauty. By celebrating Black excellence, Diaspora Pop challenges established narratives, striving to amplify and empower marginalized voices.

World premiere of the show presented for the first time!
