Georgina Philp, aka Legendary Mother Leo Saint Laurent, is known as the German Trailblazer, who organized the first ball in Germany in 2012. She was honored in Atlanta in 2022 as the first Legend in Germany for her main category, Women’s European Runway. She graduated from the Fontys Dance Academy in Tilburg (Netherlands) in 2008, with a Bachelor of Performing Arts, and since then, she has worked successfully as a performer, choreographer, and curator in the European dance and cultural sector. Together with the international members, the House of Saint Laurent brings an extensive experience in the intersection of Ballroom, performance art, and political activism or political education.   These include projects such as the Give Me Life Festival at Volksbühne (2022), the Pump into the Future Ball at Ruhrtriennale 2024, or the recent Fierce Foundations Festival in 2025 at Hebbel am Ufer. At Ballhaus Naunynstraße, Georgina Philp will host the third edition of Widerständiges Feiern (Resistant Celebrations), curated by Fabienne Mahwane, entitled Feiern zwischen Widerstand und Vereinnahmung: Ballroom Festivity (Celebrating Between Resistance and Appropriation: Ballroom Festivity).
