Queer Intimacies, Trans Futures, Grief, and Radical Hope in "Seahorse" With Guest J.C. Pankratz

Update: 2023-06-14

Description

Host, Nicolas Shannon Savard interviews playwright J.C. Pankratz about their play, "Seahorse", a poetic, stream-of-consciousness one-person show about a trans man’s attempts at artificial insemination following his husband’s unexpected death. The conversation will dive into the play’s approach to the “messiness” of imagining futures you can’t yet see and its use of magical realism to invite audiences to sit inside that mess as witnesses and confidants.
