Intrepid Theatre

A workshop showing & talkback
Created as part of the OUTstages Residency Program

Slow Dive is a coming-of-age queer exploration of embodiment, and the conscious and unconscious histories we carry in our bodies. Themes of swimming and water move throughout the performance, drawing on symbolism to portray embodiment, grief, self-love, and queer identity. Alongside personal narratives and reflections, Slow Dive collages research-based historical accounts such as the colonial roots of the breaststroke, the mythology of clams, and iconic queer cultural references like the hanky code and the first lesbian kiss on Star Trek. Slow Dive will feature live narration, video, and choreographed movements between body, props, and projections.

Note: tickets are by donation, and due to Eventbrite, only one ticket may be booked at a time. To book multiple tickets, you will need to complete the check-out multiple times. We apologize for this inconvenience.
