QUEER & NOW

PRODUCER/PERFORMER

​

Queer & Now has transitioned from a performance-based collective to a community care space during the COVID-19 pandemic. We frequently have Zoom calls where we check in, offer support for one another, laugh, and share ideas about the future.

​

We will have digital performances from time to time while social distancing. We started with Queers in Zoom, a collection of solo lip sync, drag, and burlesque performances, held on April 11, followed by Prom on May 23.

CELEBRITY RITUAL: BRITNEY & JANET

DRAMATURG

A healing ceremony for Britney Spears and Janet Jackson—linked by their shared destructive relationship to celebrity and J*st*n T*mb*rl*ke. A night where we cleanse the past, with verbatim readings of callous tabloids, re-imaginings of iconic (yet damaging) imagery, and an insertion of Instagram into the narrative of paparazzi.
