William Yang: The Man Who Photographed Queer Australia

For more than 50 years, William Yang has documented Australia's queer community through his camera, creating one of the country's most important social archives. Although his name may not be familiar to everyone, his photographs have captured generations of queer life, from the liberation movement of the 1970s, through the AIDS crisis, and into the present day. His work has become an invaluable record of queer history. As William celebrates his 80th birthday, BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! revisits his remarkable story in this exclusive chat with one of the pioneers of gay photography. Graeme Smith speaks to William about his extraordinary career, the stories behind some of his most powerful images, and why preserving LGBTQ+ history has never been more important. William features in Volume Six of BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! magazine, where we celebrate his life and work. Brought to you by BOYS! BOYS!

They also work in partnership with Choose Love to secure futures for LGBTQIA+ refugees and displaced people around the world. It is an extraordinary organisation set up by two extraordinary young actors: Sebastian Croft and Connor Jessup. Both stars from juggernaut TV shows that you will have seen: Sebastian from Heartstopper, and Connor from Falling Skies. From 30 June - 2 July Queer Was Always Here will take over the BOYS! BOYS!

Young Queer Actors: Fallout Star Xelia Mendes-Jones & Tiptoe Star Gabriel Clark

Two of the most exciting young queer actors working today, recorded live at the BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Gallery Café. First, Xelia Mendes-Jones, the breakout star playing Dane in Amazon Prime Video's post apocalyptic juggernaut 'Fallout' opposite Ella Purnell and Kyle MacLachlan. Footballer turned Cambridge scholar turned screen actor, Xelia is razor sharp on trans representation, on the difference between a character whose transness is the whole story and one for whom it is simply true, and on why the loudest takes about who gets to play whom usually miss the point. Then, Tiptoe star Gabriel Clark. First coming to our attention as Ollie Morgan on Hollyoaks, now in Russell T Davies' hot new drama 'Tip Toe' alongside Alan Cumming and David Morrissey. Gabriel also takes us inside the chemsex play 'Jock Night' and the tabloid storm around his coming out. Funny, fearless and unafraid to say the things most actors will not. Brought to you by BOYS!

BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club from the Oscar Wilde Suite at The Cadogan Hotel, for all your Queer. Art. Culture

This episode of The BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Breakfast Club comes from one of the most significant locations in queer history: the Oscar Wilde Suite at The Cadogan, A Belmond Hotel, in London. The room where Oscar Wilde was arrested in April 1895. Joining Graeme Smith & Ghislain Pascal is the award-winning historian and biographer Matthew Sturgis, whose acclaimed biography Oscar: A Life is widely regarded as the definitive account of Wilde's life. Shortlisted for the Wolfson History Prize and praised by the Times Literary Supplement as "the Book of the Year, perhaps of the decade", Sturgis drew on newly discovered letters, court records and years of original research to create the most authoritative portrait of Wilde ever written. If you're going to tell the story of Oscar Wilde in the very room where history unfolded, there is no better guide. Then we are joined by BOYS! photographers Paul McDonald and Nigel Grimmer to discuss photo fairs & galleries; Paul's new zine Things I Wanted to Say - but Never Did; and Nigel's striking brutalist series in the latest edition of our BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! Magazine Volume 11. From Oscar Wilde's final days of freedom to contemporary queer photography and storytelling, this episode brings together history, art and lived experience in one of London's most remarkable rooms.
