We have been pouring an immense amount of love and excitement and energy into this film about grief and counterfeit and family and there are so many people to thank for embedding themselves in its process, and we would love to share these photos that feature the stunning humans in the cast. More to come soon but for now, a big hooray to bringing visions to life, gratitude for the moment, and a big deep breath before the adventure that will be post-production. // Blossoming Wasp 🌺 🐝 #queerart #queercinema #southasiancinema #madeinny #goopy

Purim ACTIVATED!

It’s hard to put it into words, but I’m gonna start trying…
90 minutes of musical satire about Ai Empire, with glitches of shabari, an anatomy lesson using a real heart, stirring song and poetry - co-created in 6 weeks with 9 performer/writers, and supported by over 50 community members, watched by over 650 people in three days - and countless hours of scheming with the dreamiest collaborator badasses @sobez and @hroodman 🥰🥰🥰🥰

This project renewed my belief in and devotion to community-made theatre ritual as a tool to connect us to our hearts and each other, so we have the resilience to face up to and resist reality.
