Holly Redford Jones - I Was Dancing in the Lesbian Bar

Manchester-based Chesterfield musician turned stand-up comedian Holly Redford Jones is dancing in a Lesbian Bar and you’re invited…

Set in an imaginary Lesbian Bar, this bold new show is a sonic love letter to sapphic institutions of a bygone era and a celebration of queer women of the past, present and future.

Drawing from personal experience and musical influences ranging from Dusty Springfield to Steps, this show is a dance through nostalgic tales of unsung, unsanitised lesbian debauchery.

On behalf of the LGBTQ+ community and their allies, Redford Jones seeks answers to the biggest questions: Where have all the Lesbian Bars gone? How do you know when you’re in a Lesbian Bar? And just how did Chesterfield’s Crooked Spire get to be so crooked?

Winner of “Best Stand-Up Comedy” and Runner Up “Best LGBTQ+ Production” at Greater Manchester Fringe 2024.
