GLI$TER: a Fringe Arts show

The Hum’n’bards are back for the 2017 Philadelphia Fringe Festival!

This year The Hum’n’bards have adapted the story of Shakespeare’s Merchant of Venice and taken themes from Orwell’s Animal Farm to create a show inspired by Weimar-era cabaret, clowning, and street theatre: GLI$TER.

Join The Banker and his tribe of Sad American Clowns as they weave the story of Shylock, Portia, Antonio, and Bassanio, all struggling to find common ground in a world controlled by judgement and greed. Featuring original music by Anna Michael and Travis Fischbach and performances by Eric Jaffe, Christina Higgins, Anna Michael, Travis Fischbach, Jeremy Adam, Taylor Plunkett-Clements and Lexi Pozonsky, GLI$TER will transport you to a sexy, glitter-fueled world where The Banker always wins.

…but remember to come prepared to tip with small bills, because these clowns work for cash and an empty hat can stop the show!

TWO SHOWS!
Tuesday, September 12th & Sunday, September 17th!!
Doors at 7pm, show at 8pm.

When There Is No One and There Is Everyone: Poetry, Drag & Art

Celebrate the release of Rex Renee Leonowitch‘s new book of poetry and illustrations, When There Is No One And There Is Everyone, with an evening of poetry, drag, music & art.

The event will feature readings and performances using drag, music, poetry, and visual art/digital media to pay homage to events & people who, through their protest, grief, triumph & lust for life, shape our world for the better.

REX RENEE LEONOWICZ is a multimedia artist, performer, writer, and activist from Queens, New York. As a poor/working class, trans/nonbinary femme, Rex’s art and performance work is grounded in a politics of radical resistance, healing, and witness. Rex is a gender-bending, genre-blending artist whose work critically responds to the relationships people on the margins have with our surroundings and each other.
