Canberra's Alternate Performing Arts Hub
who we are
Our Story
Flazéda is the newest, most exciting expansion of Jazida Productions!
Flazéda is Canberra's newest alternate performing arts hub!
Located in the heart of Belconnen, Flazéda is an aesthetically beautiful studio and performance space that is custom made to support artists and the community. This boutique, curated environment is being established to help people feel comfortable with themselves, by removing barriers that prevent alternate bodies from being seen and celebrated. Our focus is on elevating alternate performance art and artists through professional development and performance opportunities.
This is the newest venture from Jazida Productions (WINNER of the Canberra Local Business Awards for Outstanding Performing Arts, Winner of "Best Dance" at the Adelaide Fringe Festival weekly award). It is headed up by Jazida, who is a queer POC voted #46 most influential burlesque industry figures in the world 2020, voted top 10 for biggest contribution to the Australian Burlesque Industry two years running, nominated for ACT Woman of the year 2019, and title holders for many dance awards).
Jazida Productions has been operating since 2015 to support the professional development of alternate performing artists (alternate arts outside of the mainstream, such as burlesque, drag, comedy, bellydance, circus, and more) through providing classes/workshops/scholarship programs/paid performance opportunities. We run dance classes, performance workshops, and produce vibrant fun variety nights and burlesque shows that showcase and celebrate all kinds of people in a bawdy celebration of body positivity and diversity.
Flazéda is a space where we can run more classes, more workshops, link artists up with mentors, and provide a performance space where new and established artists can showcase their work and audiences can enjoy those performances in a safe and supportive environment.
