Submerged from All Sides...
by Aurin Squire
Laughter + sex = fun (theatre).
Fire! New Play Festival 2008 showcases new political theatre featuring Black LGBT protagonists. The work collectively covers a spectrum of human struggle and culture. Sharon Bridgforth’s delta dandi asks how does collective grief and trauma inform the African American experience?. Harrison David Rivers’ intelligent+humorous new work explores color perception and privilege within Black communities. And finally, Aurin Squire bravely presents a personal drama of overcoming sex addiction inside a sex-phobic U.S. society and within a sex-positive queer community.
The Artistic Director's Festival Statement.
This festival is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by the Brooklyn Arts Council, In (BAC).
