Queer Rites
Queer Rites, is a performance by the Los Angeles-based artists' group of the same name. On November 19, 1994, Luis Alfaro, Sandra Golvin, Robin Podolsky, and Doug Sadownick came together to present their Franklin Furnace Fund piece at Performance Space 122, Manhattan. Their hour-long performance knit together their journeys in an exploration of serious and comic experiences of growing up gay and the resultant family turmoil. Queer Rites explored the powers to be gained through the cooperation of various demographics within queer communities via intelligent conversation aka "word music." Queer Rites is described by the San Francisco Bay Times as “a victorious statement of personal truths by four culturally diverse artists.”
