 http://www.theintersection.org  "Gotanda is a polemicist who sees both 
 sides of a question, a writer whose grievances are balanced by a wicked 
 sense of humor."   -The New York Times   Fist of Roses uses elements of 
 personal narrative, live beat boxing and movement to explore the definition 
 of masculinity in our culture and its relationship to violence-primarily 
 violent acts in relationships. Developed by Philip Kan Gotanda and Campo 
 Santo through a series of interviews, open readings and public discussions 
 with  audience members and community groups, Fist of Roses  investigates 
 what pushes a person to hurt-even kill-someone they love.  This play 
 furthers a powerful relationship between Campo Santo and Philip Kan Gotanda 
 (his play floating weeds premiered at Intersection in 2001) and continues 
 the company's distinctive trajectory of working with this country's most 
 important writers - not just playwrights, but also fiction writers and 
 poets - to work in a small, community-based space. Unlike commissions, 
 Campo Santo + Intersection are committed to developing unprecedented 
 long-term partnerships that create a lasting space and an engaged audience 
 for the development and realization of the boldest new theatre in the 
 country. All of the plays are developed over a two to three year period and 
 all the writers we work with, including Denis Johnson, Naomi Iizuka, 
 Octavio Solis, Dave Eggers, Jimmy Santiago Baca, Greg Sarris, Jessica 
 Hagedorn, Erin Cressida Wilson, and others.   Celebrating its 40th 
 Anniversary next year, Intersection for the Arts is San Francisco's oldest 
 alternative art space and presents challenging new works in literature, 
 theatre, visual and interdisciplinary arts. We depend on the support of 
 people like you. Please help ensure that Intersection is around for 40 more 
 years and become a Member today. To become a Member, simply visit our
