So, I may or may not have applied to grad school and I may or may not have created a performance reel as part of that incredibly laborious process. OK fine I’ll share it:
And yes, I did edit it myself! Credits after the jump.

The complete video. Better late than never, eh?
Many thanks to my dancers Laura Arrington, Cara Rose DeFabio, and Rachael Dichter. And of course, to Cousin Wonderlette for the documentation!

Thanks to Michael for taking this video on his phone – it’s just a teaser with some footage cut out in the middle (sorry!). Hopefully I’ll get the real deal soon!
For those who don’t know, the inspiration for this number is after the jump:

No, my dream is not to become a major movie star. It’s not really even to play Michelle Tea in a short film version of Valencia — as my roommate asked, “isn’t that every young-queer-who-lives-in-the-Mission’s dream?” The answer, as we all know, is YES. Which is why it doesn’t count as my dream.
My real dream has been to have a KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN! Seriously, everyone is doing it and I want in on the action. It’s like free money right? And finally I have a reason! So please take a look at our campaign, chip in a few bucks (every dollar counts, NOTAFLOF, blah blah blah), etc. I’m always keeping score.
Cast: Lil Miss Hot Mess, Haute Gloo, Jerry Lee Manhattan, Aurora Switchblade, Rotimi Agbabiaka, Lynee Breedlove, Hamisi Nunes. Crew: Jerry Lee Manhattan, Jenn Kolmel, Fjord Vox, Ed Varga.

One of my latest performances (at least the ones I remember to record) from Some Thing’s Pride show on June 24 at the Stud. It’s to Karen O’s “All Is Love” from Where The Wild Things Are (which I loved, don’t hate). I really wanted to do something sweet and about queer love and connection and family and you know. Enjoy:
Thanks to my chorus of kids: Marc, Maziar, Alex, Jerry Lee, Devon, Jesse, Ivan, Bobby, Matt, Ryan, David, Oscar (and am I forgetting anyone, sorry!). And thanks to Michael for taping! Also, I messed up at one point, but you totally can’t even tell.
