A collage of literary theft. A lesson in build-your-own identity. Stealing from Cervantes, online dating sites and instant porn, Don Quixote makes and unmakes herself in a Frankenstein of music, theatre, art and Amanda Bynes twitter feed.
An unashamedly feminine, unexpected and revealing work by queer, femme showgirl Kerith Manderson-Galvin (Green Screen, SANS HOTEL/MTC; don’t bring lulu, UHT; Side Effect, 22 Short Plays, MKA) with the sugary sounds of a live girl group.
“I still don’t have a clear idea of what my voice is.” – Kerith after Kathy Acker
