LAST ONE OUT by Mykal Alder June
Middle age is hard, coming out is hard… why not try both? Last One Out is a one-woman-show by Mykal Alder June about gay bar sex, hormones, queer dating, and the joys and confusion of coming out as trans in middle age.
THE BLACK-AND-WHITE WIDOW by Laura King
As a woman greets mourners at her husband's memorial service, she considers her new life as a widow. Struggling with how to play this unfamiliar role, she turns to the great widows of black-and-white cinema for advice. As she tries to follow the traditional tropes of widowhood, she learns that sometimes you have to rewrite the part.
STILL LIFE by Femmaeve MacQueen
It is 2025. The objectification and resulting dehumanization of gender expansive people is rampant. This seemingly indomitable refusal to recognize the interiority of others, their inner landscapes of idiosyncrasies, dreams, fantasies, visions, terrors, and memories, calls for artists to daringly remind us of our fervent and ever-present humanity through radical acts of empathy and curious imagination. Taking up this call, Still Life asks the question: does imputing interiority into an object, animate or otherwise, serve as a useful model for reminding people of the joy, wonder, and beauty inherent to recognizing humanity in others to the degree that we reaffirm, or rediscover, our resolve against objectifying and dehumanizing people marked for (social) eradication?
