Pioneers Go East Collective Presents: LUCKY STAR (0.3)
July 13, 20, 27 | 8:00 p.m.
LUCKY STAR (0.3) by Pioneers Go East Collective is a queer dance performance, part underground club inspired by the famed Club 57, part video art installation. Looking back at the landscape of the downtown DIY art-making starting from Stonewall up until the 90s.Borrowing superstardom's fabulousness to celebrate queer bodies, the creative endurance, and pursuit of artistic fame, Lucky Star is trippy and irreverent, with performers cast as supernatural and alternate-universe superstar versions of themselves.
A transmedia and creative wonderland, we create a fluid and interconnected queer space for supernatural experiences. In 5 episodes, performance artists Bree Breeden, Daniel Diaz, Joey Kipp, Shaina and Bryan Baira, and downtown icon Agosto Machado bring their unique combination of cosmic-queer storytelling to the live space.
Writer & creative director Gian Marco Riccardo Lo Forte. Production designer & writer Philip Treviño. Choreographer (ensemble) Ori Flomin. Film-makers: Jon Burklund and Kathleen Kelley. Video designer Kathleen Kelley. Set designer and fabricator Mark Tambella. Sound designers Ryan William Downey and Marielle Iljazoski.
