Jibz Cameron/Dyansty Handbag returns from New York to her native California with a sampler platter of her most recent dynamic performance excrement. In Bags, DH experiences brief and traumatic emotional relationships with 5 different yet equally disturbed empty shopping bags. In Deep Feelings, DH explores early sexual misadventures, while being relentlessly critiqued by a bad advice giving talk-show host. Then we will be given the gift a sneak peek at never seen before Oh, Death, where DH is taken on a shopping spree of mortality, visiting morgues, casket factories, séances, resurrections and of course, a pair of spiritual pants…that make her dance. Dance like you have never seen before. That's a promise.

The BE(A)ST of Taylor Mac is a subversive jukebox musical comprised of collection of solo numbers from the New York-based performance artist's decade-long career. Funny and moving with a sweet, powerful voice, this is an evening of gender-bending surrealism that explores the human condition and global politics.




NY-based producer Earl Dax (“Weimar New York”) and the creative team behind the legendary Jackie 60 nightclub continue the cross-pollination of San Francisco and New York alternative arts, music and live performance with a Pre-PRIDE edition of their monthly Tingel Tangel Club at Bubble Lounge featuring internationally celebrated DJ Larry Tee and acclaimed performance artist Taylor Mac. San Francisco DJ Chelsea Starr (Hot Pants) spins in the sultry champagne cellar and the Wulfpak production team transforms this Financial District champagne bar into a contemporary speakeasy featuring performances by Suppositori Spelling, Dottie Lux, Hot Lil Mess, Malakai and more!
 

To witness the postmodern cabaret diva Meow Meow in concert is to risk emerging just a little bit scratched. No one is safe at her show, least of all the deliciously deranged performer herself. From the moment she enters — a vision of frazzled glamour, faintly annoyed — she is on the offensive: badgering the audience into applause, forcing men to carry her around as she awkwardly contorts above them, vamping the crowd with her magnetic jadedness.
