If you're in Toronto next Friday night, just kicking around, looking for lesbian fun, you would do well to check out Strange Sisters cabaret at Buddies. I will be there, performing my latest lesbonic Gold Rush-era oeuvre, The Diary of Rachel Keyes, Klondyke Nurse. There are many other fine queer performers doing their thing that night (films! videos! Lesbian rock opera!) and there's a fabulous party afterwards, where I will be performing my other oeuvre, Dancing Fatly While Clutching a Smirnoff Ice. It's modern - I don't expect the audience to really "get" it.
If you're in Edmonton next Friday night, just kicking around, looking for campy Hallowe'en cock rock horror fun, you would do well to attend Northern Light Theatre's Urban Tales 10 - BiFurious!
Or, if you cannot attend in person, Northern Light Theatre will be streaming the show LIVE on the web October 27th at www.bifurious.ca

“Being in this band has been like being in prison for the last ten years. I hope the next time I see any of you again- it’ll be in hell…!!”
Troubled rock band BiFurious have arrived to record their farewell album ‘BiSected’ in an abandoned warehouse. There are dark rooms, damp walls, abandoned wings and simmering hostilities that are tearing the band apart… But none of the members of BiFurious know that the building also harbors a genuine banshee- a female spirit- a weeping harbinger of death - bent on revenge.
The concept is brilliant and the website is hilarious; sadly I can't be there in person, but you can bet I'll be watching online on Saturday night, once I've returned home from my nursing engagement. Each of us playwrights were assigned one character (I wrote for lead singer Cody Gold - jealous?) and then our four bits were edited together by dramaturge or dramaturges unknown. So I have no idea if what I wrote even made sense! Which, let's face it, is how I like it.
In other, and final news, as of today it is now one month until our big gay wedding. Ha ha -BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAARG.
