Hot off the presses! The News is the place to see what’s new in queer performance. On the first Tuesday of each month The News casts a spotlight on experiments, new and debut works, and works in progress by pre-selected solo artists, groups, or troupes. An informal session for critical feedback follows the performances.

The first edition of The News features Rotimi Agbabiaka, DIAmanda Kallas II Dia Dear, La Chica Boom, Peter Max Lawrence, Marissa Majick, the Brontez Purnell Dance Company, Kolmel WithLove, and Shaunna Vella.

House opens at 7:00pm and space is limited. Admission is $5. Advance tickets may be purchased at thenewsperformance.eventbrite.com.
