Bark of Millions
A Parade Trance Extravaganza for the Living Library of the Deviant Theme
55 songs for 55 years of queer history: In this opulent four-hour concert show rich in emotions, Taylor Mac, Matt Ray and an ensemble of 20 artists sing one song for each year that has passed since the first queer Pride March in 1970. A celebration of memory and community, “a rock opera meditation on queerness”.
