Austin, Texas. Vortex Theater director and friend Bonnie Cullum is creating a symposium called Green New Theater. We’re invited to participate and collaborate. No doubt this will be a thrilling gathering and happening. We can’t wait!
For the last decade, Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens have been creating performance under the rubric of "ecosexuality" in which they playfully provoke audiences to think differently about their relationship to the Earth: instead of imagining Earth as mother, how would we treat the Earth if we thought of it as a lover?

All activities are open to students, staff, faculty, and community. Link to this event on […]
