A Host of People

Cleopatra Boy is an original multi-media play that uses the history of Cleopatra to illustrate how women, POC, and LGBTQIA+ individuals in positions of power risk losing control of their own images and histories, resulting in false narratives and misrepresentations, in order for the current dominant paradigm to retain power and control. Part courtroom drama, part theatrical reclamation and celebration, the piece uses live music, projections, a live-feed toy theater movie, and much more to examine justice in representation –in our past, present, and future.
