mayfield brooks:
Letters to Marsha with Viewing Hours (a diptych)
January 30 - February 1, 2019
In 1992, mayfield brooks had a missed connection with queer ancestor Marsha P. Johnson. Based on danced and written love notes, Letters to Marsha explores the weight of bodies and history, and the artist’s own evolution as a Black, non-binary queer connecting specters of Black queer death to memory, movement, sound, humor, and pathos. Also as part of the evening, brooks shares Viewing Hours, a piece that takes the form of a wake, with brooks examining perceptions of death and decay—specifically the spectacle of Black bodies dying, decomposing, and grieving in plain sight—and challenges the currency that makes Black death profitable.
Performance Dates & Times
All performances will begin at 8:00pm EST.
Thursday, January 30th
Friday, January 31st
Saturday, February 1st
Tickets
$25 General Admission tickets available HERE.
