The award-winning and highly acclaimed queer Xicana artist, Adelina Anthony, who brought us the hilarious and thought-provoking La Hocicona Series (an epic ride with three sassy and critically engaging femmes-on-stage) will debut her latest solo comedy, MAN UP!?!

Created exclusively for allgo this new show plunges into queer people of color cultural taboos around those ever light-hearted and easy topics she loves to straddle: sexuality, religion, race/ethnicity, gender, gentrification and so much more! It’s a novel examination of macha-butch-boi and other masculine of center topics from a chameleon performer who keeps us enthralled with each new reincarnation on stage. She teams up again with her director of choice for solo comedies, the ultra-talented D’Lo. He directs this latest comedic performance of “Oh no, she didn’t… oh, yes, she did, comadre!” Remember-the real question about our flyer is not: “Is she taking those pants off or putting them on?” It’s where… and there’s only one answer: Austin, Tejas on May 10th, 2013!

Support allgo’s work of envisioning a just and equitable society that celebrates and nurtures vibrant people of color queer cultures.

As a community based organization it is critical that we have the support of our communities to be sustainable and to thrive. It’s in our Hands!

This collection of short stories tells of Mimi, a young Black girl growing up in the suburbs of a Northern city. The performance of “Sittin’ in a Saucer” encourages the audience to experience Mimi’s world as if they are her neighbors and friends. The work evokes memory and family as it reflects on class, race, gender and sexuality. This event is free.

In 1997 and 1998 four Latin@ lesbians from San Antonio, Texas were wrongfully convicted and sentenced to 37 and 15 years of prison for allegedly sexually assaulting two young girls. There was no real evidence against them, but the diagnosis of so-called “Satanic-related sexual abuse” and the belief that lesbianism predisposed them to the sexual abuse of the little girls was highly influential in their trials. In 2012 one of the girls has come forth saying the incident never happened. Attorneys and advocates are working to exonerate these women.
