Hot Girl Summer (and other trans myths)

A Performance by Pau S. Pescador

February 24, 8 pm

Hot Girl Summer (and other trans myths) is a three-act performance art event, which takes place in the optimistic summer days of 2021. Vaccines, socializing and the act of being seen! Through this solo performance Pescador utilizes costumes, puppets and props to explore their own successes and failings attempting to reorient the world as a recently transitioned body. The world is open, everything is possible…including the bittersweet pain of heartbreak!
