Event Details

 

 

They’ve been called “gender terrorists”, “performance art revolutionaries”, and the “kind of
drag queens your mother warned you about”; but underneath all of the spectacle of
Portland’s premiere shock-drag troupe "Sissyboy" is a group of amazingly insightful and sensitive
individuals who have found an outlet for their self-expression that often leaves their
audiences simultaneously delighted and horrified.

 

Sissboy Still

 

Any Sissyboy will tell you that underneath the glitter, fake eyelashes, social commentary and
off-color humor is a very real, and often very painful presence that causes them to create
their unique brand of art. “Sissyboy is group therapy for twelve gay men” says member
Benjamin Porter - who attributes his participation in Sissyboy in helping his father come to
terms with his own homosexuality -“We get on stage and we get to be the monsters that
haunted us as we were growing up, and the ones that still haunt us today”.

Presented as an official "Cuddle Cinema" selection at Comfort & Joy's 2010 Faetopia Festival in San Francisco. This screening will features concessions sponsored by Cafe Flore (which is featured as a set in the film) & Taylor's Tonics.

Comfort & Joy is an arts collective dedicated to promoting queer culture, expression, self-actualization and community by acting as a mutual-support society for our members, producing art installations & organizing special events.

Faetopia Festival 2010



The Faetopia Festival transforms an empty Castro District storefront into visions of the potential future utopias we could create together (versus the various dystopias that surround us today).  Featuring local artistry, an EcoHomo ecology center, performance art, Cuddle Cinema and future-oriented workshops throughout the week, Faetopia redefines how vacant commercial space can be used to grow our community.  Sponsored by Comfort & Joy with support from the Church of Nomenus, Cafe Flore, Eco Homo SF and Taylor's Tonics.
