In a mosaic of time fragments, Woo Woo Child follows a group of six New York City artists at the precipice of new beginnings. Its present is the night of Valeria’s final cabaret performance. With characters taking on tarot archetype qualities, the play explores queer fate, messy power and narrative-by-accumulation.

BLUSH

At the center of the Black Hole is the Event Horizon. Crawl inside and save me a dance. Internal transformations become external. Let’s reckon with one another or become unrecognizable. It’s ok if you’re a little smelly.

A Map to Nowhere (things are)

A Map to Nowhere (things are) is a reminder that this is Real Life—and that means there is real hope for tomorrow. It is a chakra-based ritual and abolitionist practice in closing the gap between dreams and reality.

Kate Moore Heaney & Divya Mangwani
