Middlebury College

A new filthy, funny and intimate solo show, triangulating the sex and love letters of long dead artists, contemporary sexts, and a meditation on the construction of the queer female body. How do we write ourselves and for whom?
The show features letters from Joyce, Frida Kahlo, Georgia O'Keeffe, Mozart, Charles Bukowski, Radclyffe Hall, Eleanor Roosevelt and others. It also includes sexts sent to the artist by anonymous donation. It is a Queer Archive of longing, communication, and sex acts.

We plan to bring this show to Middlebury College for 2 performances, plus a weeklong educational residency including workshops on gender, sexuality, and feminism; devising solo theatre; and creating art from personal narratives. The show will anchor a symposium on gender and sexuality (this year's edition is entitled Performing Feminist Joy.) We would also like to engage young adults in a sex-positive/writing desire workshop (themed with valentine's day) led by our campus' Feminist Center.
