A live-singing queer storyteller redefining cabaret through truth, glamour, and grit.
Tell us a little about what you do
Glitzy Von Jagger is a South Australian live vocalist, theatre-maker, and queer storyteller whose work blends autobiographical songwriting with theatrical performance.
Their debut EP Hide and Seek explores identity, trauma, healing, gender reclamation, and queer love. Written in the UK and performed across Adelaide stages, the project marked their first physical release at their debut theatre show Queerdo at Adelaide Fringe.
Their original ballad Balladeer, filmed in South Australia, further cemented their presence as a live-singing artist committed to local storytelling. Their Feast Festival show Glitzy X Puncho showcased their ability to merge live music, character, and cabaret into dynamic queer performance.
From intimate stages at Mary’s Poppin to full theatre productions, Glitzy continues to create work that centres vulnerability, resilience, and community connection.

Why does your work matter to the community?
Glitzy’s work matters because it gives voice to stories often silenced: experiences of trauma, gender reclamation, queer love, and healing. Through their music and live performance, they create spaces where LGBTQIA+ people can see themselves reflected, feel validated, and be inspired to embrace their own identities. Their shows — from Glitzy X Puncho at Feast Festival to Queerdo at Adelaide Fringe — are celebrations of queer resilience, visibility, and creativity. By centering authenticity, vulnerability, and chosen-family love, Glitzy builds connection, understanding, and joy in the community.
