Queer Performance: How to Be a Gender Cannibal
Monday, March 18 | 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. | Bonnell Building, Black Box Theater
John Jarboe (she/her), the artistic director of the Bearded Ladies Cabaret, will lead a workshop that will teach you the tools and tactics for creating and sharing a live performance. Jarboe, a transfemme drag performer, recently debuted a piece at FringeArts and Under the Radar called "Rose: You Are Who You Eat," which explores their gender journey through the lens of cannibalism and a vanishing twin. Jarboe will draw on the approaches they developed for this piece and throughout their 13 years as the founding leader of the Bearded Ladies. Come prepared to write, move and play, bring ideas of pieces you are working on or questions about creation for theater and film.
