In the fall of my senior year, I had the distinct pleasure of working with a few of my closet peers to bring an idea of mine to life. Inspired by the work of queer theatre houses La MaMa and Cafe Chino, An Exaltation of Queer is a one-act, devised theatre piece combining poetry, spoken word, improv comedy, and immersive theatre to share complex and moving stories of queer expression through the eyes of our ensemble. 

While the show has the ability to change and be fresh each time, and transcend a multitude of performing environments, the heart of the piece remains. I hope to continue exploring this show and bringing it to venues across the city in the next few years.
