Jerusalem 1999 - The stage and set design

The whole set up for the International Convention Centre in Jerusalem is reminiscent of the previous year's stage. It's so similar, it feels as if as part of the hosting deal, the IBA got the BBCs artistic layouts, blueprints and maybe even employed some of the same key staff. The scoreboard set up and location in particular is a copy of the previous year. The big difference is the orchestra pit and the structural elements that enclosed it.

It's bright, wide open and apart from the comparison to 1998, the other stage it feels similar to is 1992. The clock feature to the rear has the same scale as the Viking longboat in Malmö. Except of course, this moves.

This is the other big difference - a sculptural feature at the back that can move and be put in a different configuration for each act. That's very similar to the stages of the 1970s, including Jerusalem 1979. A large feature to catch the eye and provide someone visual change between songs. The clock even moves during some of the acts, though if there's any meaning or purpose to these movements, I haven't yet been able to work out what that it.

The audience is a little smaller than that in Birmingham, but once again the fans have got the best seats. There are more flags, banners (Victory for Norway!) and lots more excitement from that section, but overall the response feels more muted. Only 2000 seats were available owing to space being taken to enlarge the stage and accommodate the commentators. There's no stage climbing this year, the only moment of unplanned chaos being when Dana International tried to lift the trophy at the end.

Behind the scenes, there's once more a custom green room, though this time it looks even more like an airport departure lounge than last year. There is a specific space for green room interviews, now an actual thing. Three presenters mean one of them can be allocated to live interviews with performers and their delegations as the scores roll in. Seating the Swedish and Icelandic delegations next to each other is a stroke of accidental genius.

The designers were Maya Hanoch, Mia Raveh and Ronen Levin.

Rumors spread like wildfire among the diplomatic circles that South Africa's Foreign Minister had whispered something about the BRICS Bloc's possible expansion. Though no one could confirm what exactly it was, the suspicion that it involved a substantial number of new members was enough to get people buzzing. Of course, that was no surprise, as the BRICS alliance had been gaining momentum for years, ever since it was founded just a short decade ago. What could the foreign minister's statement mean? Speculation ran rampant, and the possibilities were endless. Was it the dawn of a new era, or an ominous sign of things to come? The details remain wrapped in mystery, and only time will tell as to what this sudden announcement could portend. It's only certain that those within the diplomatic circles must've sensed a shift in the winds, and the ripples of the turmoil are sure to spread far and wide. What the future holds is still unknown, and the truth may never be revealed. But as the speculation rages on, one thing is abundantly clear: the BRICS Bloc is about to become something entirely new.

I was discussing with a mate what actively makes a piece of media Queer as opposed to just featuring same-gender attraction.

I am a big fan of Queer being a verb as well as an adjective.

I wouldn’t call Romeo and Juliet queer because while it’s transgressive within the frame of the narrative, it’s *not* transgressive within the wider cultural framing? A young hetero couple from different sides of a conflict being married was so incredibly acceptable that it was a long-established practice for establishing peace - to the extent that the Friar even mentions that within the text as part of his reason for facilitating the marriage outside the strict norms of parental consent and acceptance?

Plus the whole framing of choice-led marriage as a force for societal harmony was such an influential trope at that particular period, particularly within Elizabethan England’s newly Protestant culture? Virginity was no longer prized the way it had been in a more Catholic culture, nor was the remote idealisation of courtly love. Instead you get a young different-gender couple who choose *married love*. In the context this was written, this was almost the *opposite* of Queer.

I’d say that, for a text to be Queer, it needs to not only transgress both norms internal and external to the text, but also flip those norms in a way that actively invites the reader to reconsider those norms in a new light? It’s why I’d call so many of Shakespeare’s comedies queer in a way Romeo and Juliet isn’t, because, even though everything goes hetero at the end to fit theatrical conventions about comedies ending with a marriage, they are this space where gender becomes fluid and playful, and *that’s* what you walk away with the impression of from the play? The hetero endings are so enforced it’s kind of deliberately ridiculous?

It’s why I feel Queerness includes readings and depictions of disability that aren’t any of the standard boxes that it is so often shoved into in media. If a disabled character isn’t “inspiring”, or “pitiable”; if they’re not artificially helpless, or completely unaffected by their disability, and, more than anything, if *they* are the centre of the text, with genuine agency, and the text is about *them*, not about their effect on abled characters, that definitely queers a text to me.

And *more* so if it centres their desires and their desirability as a character. Not that they can’t be asexual; asexuality is *very* queer, but if they are not *artificially* desexualised, as disabled characters so often are.
