Event details
Details THE BI(G) LIFE: Two Solo Performances
Theater & Performance Studies Thesis Projects
Written & Performed by Jeremy Guyton (COL ‘12)and Allie Villarreal (COL ‘12)
Advised by Professors Natsu Onoda Power and Maya E. Roth, Thesis Advisers

Riffing on memoir, savvy in their cultural critique, and laced with humor, these two thirty-minute original solo thesis performances together comprise THE BI(G) LIFE. What does it mean to be standing “in the middle”? Using performance to debunk myths of the bisexual lifestyle, Jeremy Guyton’s solo work explores unique intersections of race, gender and sexuality while questioning the sustainability of bisexual lifestyles in a society focused on monogamous heterosexuality. Allie Villarreal’s solo work, in turn, invites the audience to step into the very big shoes of an array of engaging characters all sharing the common experience of living with fat--and taking it in stride.

Friday, February 3 at 8 p.m.
Saturday, February 4 at 8 p.m.
Sunday, February 5 at 2 p.m.
