A new three-person play exploring the lingering effects of sexual trauma.
“It is the set-up of a swathe of high-school movies, except the dialogue is very sharp, the performances are very well-judged, and the weirdness and the sexual tension are electric.”

The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions
The Faggots & Their Friends Between Revolutions
A devised adaptation of Larry Mitchell’s classic queer fable/manifesto from 1977. This production sold-out to hundreds of audiences across the California Bay Area, transforming underground venues and theatres into ancient queer caves. Performances spanned live Foley sound, clown, stiptease, stand-up, shadow puppetry, and dance to tell the story of the mythical faggots. The production also raised money for local queer vendors and justice organizations.
