Gender Crash
Open mic
with
Feature: Mylène St Pierre
She
has been writing and reading her own smut for over 10 years now. She likes
to put her degree in Sexology to good use by writing very dirty stories.
She recently moved to Boston via MOntréal to be with her fiancée
where they live out their deviant filthy fantasies in suburbia. Mylène's
feature will be closing the show.
This
is a Benefit for Judah and Laverne
with performances from friends
About 2-weeks ago there was a massive fire in a Framingham housing complex
that resulted in more than 100 people becoming homeless, including two
amazing LGBT activists - Judah Dorrington and Laverne Saunders. So this
month, half of the proceeds of the door are going to be donated to Judah
and Laverne.
For more than 20 years Judah and Laverne have contributed to the development
and growth of the Boston LGBT, arts, drug rehab, anti-racist and youth
communities. Some of you know Judah as the music director of Drag Kings,
Sluts, and Goddesses; others may have benefited from Laverne's great facilitation.They
do also do tremendous work as independent consultants for non-profits
and government agencies in the Boston area as well as across the country.
These are but a few of the wondeful ways that they have contributed to
our communities.
They now need our help. It is unclear when Judah and Laverne will be able
to return to their home to assess the damage to their possessions including
Judah's musical equipment, their computers/paper files, clothes, furniture,
personal supplies and such. Until they return to their home, their consultancy
work is severely disrupted and they have, to a large degree, lost their
source of income. Let's support two important people from our community
at Gender Crash this month.
Bring your Poetry,
Spoken Word, Slam Style Poems, Essays, Acoustic Music, Performance, Singing,
Drag, and Dance are all welcome. Where you can be a Rock Star! for at
least 3 minutes!
Doors
open at 7p show at 7:30pm Spontaneous Celebrations, 45 Danforth St, Jamaica
Plain, Orange line, Stonybrook stop, all ages, $5 - 10 at the door,
open to everyone, more info? gendercrash
