Synopsis: | In thirtynothing, marking both the 30th anniversary of AIDS and his own 30th birthday, performance artist Dan Fishback searches for role models and father figures amongst gay artists lost to AIDSMark Morrisroe, David Wojnarowicz, David B. Feinberg, Essex Hemphill and many more. Fishback tears open issues of sexual intimacy, mass death and cultural memory with insight, wit, and his characteristic dark, neurotic humor. In his efforts to change the way queer people see themselves and their history, Fishback proves to be one of the most crucial voices of his generation. | |||||

Synopsis: | an irreverent performance piece about two surly, queer teenagers in ancient Israel whose misadventures spiral into a provocative meditation on citizenship, imperialism and sexual ethics. . ..Set in ancient Israel at the dawn of the Chanukah War, the 'chosen people' of You Will Experience Silence are bored and horny. One day, Judah Maccabee, a mouthy, queer, Hebrew teen, travels to Jerusalem with his best friend Ezra. When they encounter a strapping Greek soldier, they must reconcile their responsibilities to their people, to their libidos, and to each other. Their story is interspersed with the tale of Ian Fleishman, a nervy 21st century activist who spends his mornings in bed, phoning the White House to complain about the state of the world and the state of his love life | |||||
