Trip and Guided Tour: Tenderness & Rage
Trip and Guided Tour: Tenderness and Rage
Join Queer Theatre as we visit The Wellcome Collection, on Saturday 17th October 2026, for a private guided tour of their Tenderness and Rage exhibition.
Tenderness and Rage explores HIV and AIDS through stories of protest and care, from the height of the UK’s AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and 1990s to global experiences of HIV today. Through photography, film and archival materials, the display connects everyday acts of care with activists’ fights for dignity, rights and equitable access to treatment.
At its centre are two photographic series created with artist Gideon Mendel. The Ward documents the lives of patients on AIDS wards at Middlesex Hospital in London, while Through Positive Eyes – a project led by the Art & Global Health Center at UCLA – shares the perspectives of HIV activists worldwide.
Tenderness and Rage amplifies voices often marginalised, with a particular focus on women living with HIV in the UK and around the world.
The exhibition is curated by Adam Rose.
There are only 20 places available for this special tour. Advanced booking is strongly advised.
