Queer Futures Past (I am Ghost and So Are You) is a multimedia installation and performance project examining personal and inherited queer erasure. Rae Red playfully address their secret, ignored, and partially imagined queer lineage through animation, movement and song. Using a playful adaptation of Spiritualist ideas of the 1840s as the visual landscape of the piece, Queer Futures Past crafts a non-linear narrative experience combining personal, familial, and cultural histories, summoning spirits, and examining notions of harm and healing.
Variety Show the Musical consists of short plays, performance art, and songs was created by Theresa Columbus, Izaak Collins, Cliff Doby, Ruby Fulton, Myles Hamilton, Caitlin Weaver, and Jacob Zabawa. The play creates the effect of a surreal vaudevillian variety show, even though several narrative and formal through-lines connect the “variety” of pieces. Different theatrical forms bump up against and expand each other, splashing into the poetry of everyday conversation.
David Greenfieldboyce presents "Ruby Creek", an original coming-of-age tale told with marionettes and shadow puppets in a traditional fairy-tale style. Performed with Katie Heffernan.
