Come to the "Girl Talk" pre-show mixer Thursday @ 6pm!
Hey "Girl Talk: A Trans & Cis Woman Dialogue" ticket holders:
We (the co-curators of Girl Talk) are throwing a mixer just before the show! There will be food and drink, plus music provided by the amazing DJ CPI! There will be a merch table where you can check out (and perhaps even procure) books, CDs, zines, etc., by Girl Talk cast members. But most importantly, this will be a chance for those of us who are committed to fostering community between queer trans women and queer cis women to meet one another, chat, and have a bit of fun before the event begins!
The mixer takes place at 6pm (one hour before the show begins) in the lobby just outside of the Rainbow Room. In other words, just show up to the event an hour early, and we'll be there having a blast!
btw, please *spread the news about this mixer*! It wasn't mentioned in the initial promotion for the show, so if you know you know anyone else who is also attending Girl Talk, be sure to encourage them to come out early for the mixer!
Hope you can make it!
-Gina de Vries, Julia Serano & Elena Rose

show description:
Queer cisgender women and queer transgender women are allies, friends, support systems, lovers, and partners to each other. Trans and cis women are allies to each other every day - from activism that includes everything from Take Back the Night to Camp Trans; to supporting each other in having "othered" bodies in a world that is obsessed with idealized body types; to loving, having sex, and building family with each other in a world that wants us to disappear.
Girl Talk is an annual spoken word show fostering and promoting dialogue about these relationships. Trans and cis women will read about their relationships of all kinds - sexual and romantic, chosen and blood family, friendships, support networks, activist alliances. Join us for a night of stories about sex, bodies, feminism, activism, challenging exclusion in masculine-centric dyke spaces, dating and breaking up, finding each other, and finding love and family.
