The T Party
Practitioner:
The Forum Theatre, Natsu Onoda Power
Date:
Jan 2 2015
Even if the idea of interactive theater gives you hives, you can still find amusement, and perhaps enlightenment, at Forum Theatre’s “The T Party,” a bold and inventive exploration of gender identity by local writer-director Natsu Onoda Power. The play begins as a progressive party you’ll be encouraged to join, but fear not. You can remain a mere observer.

Your body is a battleground
Practitioner:
Barbara Kruger
Date:
Apr 9 1989
Untitled (Your Body is a Battleground) is an iconic 1989 silkscreen portrait made by artist, feminist and activist Barbara Kruger . Though the poster was meant for the pro-choice march on April 9th, 1989, in DC, the portrait is now used mainly to voice the artist’s own opinion about gender inequality. The piece is much more relevant in today’s society, where it controls the way we view and treat women’s bodies.
