Standing room only crowd. 352 zines sold. Over $1300 raised for @hsqrab . Truly incredible. Wonderful invocations from @thedcsisters , readings by @revolutionarymagetarot , and an exciting intro to the Pansy Craze inspired production being imagined by @submersivellc !
But most special was that many of the early activists I talk about in the zine were there, and were able to see how excited people are to learn about our community’s history.
I can’t really put into words how wild it all is. I am so proud of this work and so awed and inspired by the incredible community that’s been coming together around it.
THERE’S ONE MORE LEFT!!! MARCH 12, 8PM, at @theclubcarbaltimore !!!! Hear some new stories and learn what’s next for the gay little history nights!

This Saturday, Dec 6th, 2pm-4pm is the last of our FREE pop-up performances @creativealliancebaltimore . This time with Clayton & Birdie (Josh Aterovis and Emily Hall) from 2017’s “H.T. Darling’s Incredible Musaeum”
The eccentric and larger-than-life explorer, H.T. Darling, accidentally discovered a way to access a faraway planet. There he plunders the riches of the world, including wondrous flora, fauna and other species. Seeking to benefit himself, he has brought it all back to be displayed in an enormous Musaeum. During the opening night festivities, the downstairs staff, siblings Birdie (the shopkeep) and Clayton (the concierge) create a ritual to entertain themselves, secretly inviting guests to assist.
H.T. Darling’s Incredible Musaeum was a cabinet of curiosities that invited audiences to become both witness and participant in a universe of marvels, mysteries, and uneasy revelations.
Join us Sat, Dec 6th 2:00 pm for our workshop BASIC PRINCIPALS OF PUPPETRY. Since 2017 with “H.T. Darling’s Incredible Musaem,” Submersive has engaged audience with nearly all types of puppetry. Submersive Artistic Director Ursula Marcum leads this intro to movement, breath and basic techniques for puppetry. No prior performance experience required, but do bring your curiosity and sense of play!
Tickets available at creativealliance.org.

FREE Pop-Up Performance @creativealliancebaltimore
With Dr. Decor.
Dr. Decor would like to have a heartfelt conversation with you regarding the physical (and mental) state of your house. The characters in HOME, including Dr. Decor, offered a uniquely tailored exploration of belonging, memory, and the emotional landscapes that make a place truly feel like one’s own.
Dr. Decor (performed by @vgrahamm ) originally appeared last year in Submersibles: HOME, a show we created for a private home. So odds are that you have yet to meet her. This is your rare chance.
SUNDAY, Nov. 30th @creativealliancebaltimore join us for a grand celebration of Submersive’s
past, present, and future
…with…
food, drink, dance,
a live auction,
unexpected encounters with characters from Submersive’s past,
artsy vendors,
secret missions,
a costume contest,
and other delights!

This Saturday, 2pm-4pm, @mikajnakano reprises her role as Coral at our exhibit @creativealliancebaltimore . A socialite Scorpion Fish who loves to gossip, Coral wants to know all about you. Blending immersive performance, sensory engagement, and environmental storytelling, Submerged! invited audiences to reconsider the ways humans inhabit and share the watery worlds of our planet, fostering curiosity, wonder, and connection across species.
Mika has contributed to and appeared in over a dozen Submersive productions since 2017. She devised her mask, costume, and performance for Submersive’s “Voyages” chapter at the National Aquarium this past summer.
