This year's Vogue Ball will be paying homage to Kirkby dancer Dean Murphy
Liverpool’s “legendary” Vogue Ball is returning to the city this weekend with a special tribute to a Scouse dancer.
Ballroom culture dates back to the 1920s and is dedicated to marginalised groups, the ball's organisers say. They say ballroom hailed from Black and Latina trans women and with the likes of mainstream TV shows, such as Pose, it continues to flourish. Originating in New York City, houses competed in balls for their chance of securing a grand prize.
Within a short space of time, Paul remained in London, he learned about a new dance craze which would soon be performed by Madonna. Bringing the dance up north, it wasn’t until the two friends spent the night in the Curzon Club that Dean noticed Paul was moving his arms in a way he had never seen before.
Dean said: “Before the dance, it was all about hip-hop, so when this dance came along it was just fabulous and allowed gay people to have their moment. Initially, it was boys who were doing it first but when girls did see it, they were made up and wanted to learn.
