How To Flirt | TEDXXX Talk

We're bringing the laughs to you this Welcome Week with the hilariously funny and interactive spoof TED-style seminar led by Steve Porters—an overconfident, backward‑cap‑wearing “ladies’ man and self‑taught feminist.” The show parodies pick‑up culture and comments on gender performativity, toxic masculinity, and the boundaries of consent. ​

Steve Porters is the creation of Daisy Doris May (They/She) actor (Sex Education, The Last Kingdom) and drag king (Winner of Man Up 2022 – Europe’s biggest drag king competition).

Fresh off the back of sold out shows at Soho Theatre and Edinburgh Fringe, Steve heads to Imperial with his fresh take on modern dating.

★★★★ “Electric” The Scotsman
★★★★★ "Masterful" Theatre Weekly
★★★★★ "Cult Status" The Crumb
★★★★★ “Comedy gold” Get The Chance

Directed by Mpilo May. Created and produced by HÄUS OF DONS, a London‑based queer drag‑king collective known for theatrical cabaret and subversive performance.
