2015-07-18 Speak Out

Chengdu Tongle has received CNY 3,400 from ShanghaiPRIDE in July 2015, for the purpose of organizing the event of “Speak Out Chengdu 2015”.

We’d like to express our sincere gratitude to ShanghaiPRIDE for its generous and consistent support to Chengdu Tongle in these two years. We promise to use the funding prudently and to promote a friendlier environment for LGBT. We wish a prominent future for ShanghaiPRIDE.

Best wishes,

Chengdu Tongle

The stage turns ‘gay’ because of you, and ‘not gay’ because of you.
No matter what your colour is, show us your ‘gay wisdom’.

This summer, we will host a sharing session with our community again. We continue to take this big step. Our goal is for you to leave more informed about organizations, groups and individuals who are putting much effort against a variety of issues and their feedback. Some information is scientific knowledge, development on prevention and care, and persistent stigmas and existing discrimination. While attending this panel discussion, you will learn what the efforts and challenges of local and global organizations are, and you will gain knowledge needed to fight the epidemic and how to provide for those who are living with the virus.

Part of the ShanghaiPRIDE Theatre Festival

Are you ready for a new kind of “Romeo and Juliet?”

East West Theatre presents “Bite My Thumb,” a reinvention of the popular story into a modern-day gay love triangle, setting two ‘gangs’ of off-off-Broadway productions against each other in a flamboyant subversion of traditional gender roles.

Female-to-male transgender meets lesbian cross-dressing, and lesbian butch squares off against male machismo, in this swashbuckling comedy that takes place for two performances only on June 18.
