Description

As it does every year, the Abraço Gala returns to the São Luiz Theatre on 1 December, the date on which World AIDS Day is observed. This drag show, featuring transvestites, drag queens, trans and LGBTI+ artists and supporters, celebrates the importance of inclusion and solidarity on an evening dedicated to defending human rights and equality. A gala full of joy, fun, glamour and good cheer, which the São Luiz Theatre has been supporting for over a decade. Created in 1992 by Carlos Castro as the ‘Gala Noite dos Travestis’, this event has always been an occasion to combat stigma and prejudice and to support the work carried out by the Abraço Association, which, since its foundation, has been providing support to people living with HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis and other sexually transmitted infections.
