Alone Together Curated by Megan Hanley and Leigh Hendrix
About This Show
Alone Together is an evening of queer solo performance created by six independent artists. Drawing on the queer tradition of solo performance, these artists will share exciting new material side-by-side– for one night only! Join this ephemeral queer community for an evening of new performance, poetry, theater, dance, and fiction. Presented by The Syndicate and Dixon Place, this evening asks: “What can queer solo performance do in 2015?” And then it answers: “Anything queer solo performance wants.” With performances by Mieke D, Ren Evans, Samantha Galarza, Megan Hanley, Leigh Hendrix, and Mette Loulou von Kohl.
