Raheem Mir is playing a key part in increasing the visibility of the LGBT South Asians in the UK. Utilising his talent in dance, he is at the forefront of “Gender Performance”, combining classic Indian dance with the subversion of gender norms.

Raheem flexes his knowledge of Indian culture, explores his own sexuality & experience (or lack of!), and talks about the wider reaction from the community to his loud + proud attitude.

A sassy, confident and truly unique individual Raheem is full of stories and punchlines. So much so Preet spent a good 20 minutes imploring him to try Stand Up.
