2019/03/18, 7:34 pm

There is enough personal and professional intrigue to earn the play’s description as being about “the abuse of power, political expediency, and the masks we wear to carry on as if everything is as it should be.” I think, acutely aware of my privilege as a white cisgender male, the key word here is abuse.

“I like that it’s a lot more than female impersonation now,” Queene said. “I think that if you have your heart committed to a song or a character it’s going to look good. You don’t need to do wig reveals or splits to get people going, you just need to have that energy and spark in you.”

STEAM Fest organizers hope to merge arts and sciences

Stephen Cook

2019/03/11, 1:29 pm

Albums you should have listened to: The Woods ● Sleater-Kinney⎹ Sub Pop

Ben Woodhouse

2019/03/10, 8:56 pm
