This is the Pride Show you don’t want to miss. Our storytellers are opening up about love, identity, and courage — stories that bring home what Pride is all about. It’s a celebration of belonging and bravery, with stories that remind us that love (and living authentically) always wins.
Our performer line-up:
Team 20s: Izzy Calero-Rivarola is a 27-year-old neurodivergent, queer Latina stay-at-home mum and podcast co-host. She’s passionate about respectful parenting, creativity and self-love. She previously worked in disability and LGBTQIA+ intersectional employment support and held a position on the board of directors for Wear It Purple. Her mission is to inspire authenticity and celebrate every brain’s unique brilliance.
Team 30s: Brandy Tsang is a Hong Kong-born, Sydney-raised Director and Managing Legal Counsel at a global consulting firm. A proud lesbian, she leads Pride across Australia and New Zealand, empowering LGBTQIA+ folks to bring their whole selves to work. Brandy also currently serves as President of Professional Women Sydney Toastmasters Club, where she finds joy in helping women level up in public speaking.
Team 40s: Annaliese Constable is a storyteller and comedian proud to have been a Deadly Funny national finalist in 2023. Annaliese worked in queer health for over two decades and is a regular contributor to Story Club and Queerstories.

Team 50s: Lesbian/wifey/auntie/childless cat lady Jane O’Keefe brings a blend of intuition and passion to everything she does. Having navigated a near-death experience, Jane is now fiercely passionate about embracing every moment. She’s also a psychologist and the founding creative director behind the iconic feminist Mardi Gras float, ‘The Itty Bitty Titty Committee’.

Generation Women is an award-winning cross-generational storytelling night founded in New York in 2017, Sydney in 2018 and Melbourne in 2020. Each month, six women of note read an original piece on a theme. Of those, one is in her 20s, her 30s, her 40s, her 50s, her 60s and her 70s+.
