JUNETEENTH PUBLIC PERFORMANCES 2021
JUN 19, 2021
BATHHOUSE.PPTX features the ‘Presenter,’ a queer latiné student, whose PowerPoint presentation on the history of cleanliness and bathing quickly starts to burst at the seams with appearances from the ghosts of a bathhouse at the end of the world, A Conquistador! Wearing One of Those Hats!, A Very Real Twink, and even Laura Linney.
“the work offers enough lyrical beauty to keep viewers listening….and yearning for more.” — The New York Times
“The company, under the expert direction of Chay Yew, is one of the boldest you’ll see anywhere.” — Gay City News
“BATHHOUSE.PPTX is a thrillingly transgressive concept…” — TheaterMania
“Through language both precise, poignant and funny…Valles tastefully and rigorously examines the premium we place on physical purity, along the way evoking the real and emotional politics of gloryholes, fisting, and douching.” — Theaterly
“BATHHOUSE.PPTX is a funny and truly poetic poignant piece that leaves us with a nostalgic note…” — Stage and Cinema
