Canadian Theatre Review

This important issue reflects on a contemporary alternative queer performance scene with a transnational scope, and features the script of Jess Dobkin’s Everything I?ve Got, along with articles on, and interviews with, several influential Canadian women, lesbian and trans performers including: Rosemary Rowe’s chronicle of the electric atmosphere of the Anne Made Me Gay cabaret; Erin Hurley’s examination of Nathalie Claude’s Madness Trilogy; and a boychoir’s experiments with gender fluidity discussed by David Bateman. The goal of the material in this publication is to bring to light some of the most edgy, vibrant, and under-represented performance work Canada has to offer, and to help develop a critical discourse around the fluctuating and creative methods of queer artistic production.
