In June 2020 STAF collaborated with RAZE COLLECTIVE on our first Us In The Making digital event. Together we assisted in the commissioning of 4 incredible queer artists to be part of the first ever RAZED & CONFUZED GOES DIGITAL 2020, a co-created online club night!

BRIAN
Brian is often one of few womxn in a sea of men, so she invites you to come with her as she dances her way to liberty. Blending the butch with the camp, she’s got all the T when it comes to female empowerment ️ (and more hair on her chest than your isolation armpits!)

MR WESLEY DYKES
Mr Wesley Dykes was born on Halloween 2012, after noticing a considerable lack of Colour, Soul and Funk in what he could find of the Drag King scenes across the world. Usually Wesley is your favourite rapper, your favourite RnB singer and your friendly neighbourhood fxckboi. Sometimes he’s also your favourite storyteller, using spoken word, poetry and rap to play with identity, gender, sex and attraction.
Proud member of the esteemed The Cocoa Butter Club, Wesley has been slaying stages across the UK and the world since 2012. He'll charm you with his moves and he'll charm you with his words, he's everything you want without any of the consequences- your friendly neighborhood fxckboi Mr Wesley Dykes!

BARBS
Barbs is the queen of ball out anti-glamour and debauchery. Having almost won Miss Sink The Pink 2019, and just missing out on the tittle of Lipsync1000 winner, sh'e sure to just about entertain you and leave you repulsed.'
