Lefty Pinkoes

2 Jul 2013

Jason De Santis: Tiwi Islander, Gay, Actor, Playwright, Drag Queen, Irreverant Delight

Arts, Society & Culture

This Lefty Pinkoes podcast features a young, gay Tiwi Islander who is freakishly talented in the worlds of theatre, drag and the performing arts.

If you’ve never heard of the Tiwi Islands, they are a long way from the Joy studios in Melbourne. They ’float’ over 100 kilometres north of Darwin, surrounded by the sea and many, many fish.

Life and culture there can seem a world away, and so we’re both chuffed and grateful that our guest Jason De Santis makes like a bridge, no – a rainbow! – from his Tiwi world  to ours to talk about his gay identity, his Sistergirls and ‘Kentucky Fried Turtle’.

If you’ve never heard of the Tiwi Islands, have a listen…

We dedicate this Lefty Pinkoes podcast to Sam Wallman.
