Live Art Festival #14 An Antifascist Summer Dream

CHOKE HOLE are back! After their triumphant debut in 2021, they finally step back into the ring on the big k6 stage – with an "Extreme Drag Wrestling" spectacle – for the first time in Europe. CHOKE HOLE takes a queer-feminist look at the traditionally macho world of wrestling, using drag and queer performance to highlight and showcase the flamboyant and camp elements of professional wrestling. The event itself features a mix of lip-sync performances, choreographed wrestling matches, acting and video elements. Let's get ready to rumble!
