Tell the Children at Dinner
As a queer, genderfluid American, I feel that a true refuge for myself and my loved ones are the spaces that are first created for the most marginalized of our community and opened to those who will respect that source of creation and the rules that are set for the space.
I am working with Charles Tyson Jr as a co-director and choreographer to memorialize Dr. Joeigh Perella’s (a queer community organizer) monthly spaghetti dinner she has created in South Jersey into a performance art event that captures and expands on the space of intergenerational queer community that she has cultivated with activist Martha Madrigal.
Martha will be telling the children a story of Her Own with the support of three dancers - myself, Charles, and Allison Sexton.
