“In the year 2013 the seemingly tightly knit queer performance art community of the Bay Area is tearing at the seams, a turbulent community in conflict: ‘experimental’ dancers vs. ‘dancy’ dancers, social commentators vs. drag queens, aesthetics vs. politics. What the people need now is a comedic roast and to embrace the below-the-surface turmoil.” — Peter Max Lawrence This June The News features performers selected by the hosting duo Philip Huang and Peter Max Lawrence on their chosen curatorial theme, “This Is What I Hate.” Performing artists include Philip Anderson, Jaime Cortez, Tessa Fleming, Carletta Sue Kay, Michelle L. Morby, Daniel Redman, Phatima Rude, Kevin Seaman, Irrelevant Transmission and Kolmel WithLove.
