Strange Bird, Queer Bird

A true pandemic love story… @ Buntport Theater

A red and blue bird drawn over a photo of an empty park swing

A playful and intimate exploration of love, comfort, and home in a world on fire.

Rattlesnakes are low to the ground and full of surprises. Like hearts, their jaws never give up. But do you think rattlesnakes ever get to feel what it’s like to fall?

—Strange Bird, Queer Bird

Tickets available now

Text taken from correspondence between Julie Rada and Lars Reid, combined with original dance and live music (that’s us) to create an intimate reflection on blossoming love in a time of isolation. Set and costumes by Annabel Reader and Dan Huling of the Colorado Shoe School. The show is co-produced by Buntport Theater.

JANE/EYRE @ The Bakery

| theater

We are not here to flatter egotism, or prop up humbug; we are merely telling the [queer] story. We value what is good in the book; but we believe in the existence of other, and more vivid kinds of goodness.

Missa Populi @ PackingHouse Center for the Arts

| theater

Combining the sacrifice, transcendence, blood, and circumstance of the Catholic Mass with history, live music, science, dance, literature, and pop culture to find a wholly modern communion experience. What we have left is our selves, broken and battered, but surviving together.
