I also wanna say that I have never worked this way before- the show combines reading directly from my book and performing pieces throughout my 20+ years as DH that relate to said reading or experiential vibe. Berry bunerable. It was scary. It’s good to do scary things tho. Beyond sexually and dressing weird.
I feel very excited to have learned something new. And proud of myself for writing a book. It’s super easy actually - anyone can and should do it because I’m telling you it’s a breeze, I felt confident, secure, worthy, intelligent and not a shred of shame the entire time I was working on it ☺️JK DUH It was a nightmare! and a dream, with nightmares in it.
Also thank you to the special agents of chaos at @dopaminebooks for asking me to write a bewk. And to katy Dammers for asking me to write another goddam show.
For one night only: Dynasty Handbag brings Weirdo Night to Frenchtown. Don’t miss it.
A “hilarious and deranged” (LA Times) force of nature, Dynasty Handbag has been called “genius” and “unclassifiable,” a collision of comedy, performance art, and full-throttle absurdity that’s earned a devoted cult following.
Join us for this unrepeatable evening of chaos, brilliance, and beautiful nonsense.
Featuring:
✨ Drag poet Illustrious Pearl
✨ HAAGS (dance)
✨ Francasca D’Uva (music + comedy)
✨ Claywoman (extraterrestrial icon)
