La MaMa - The Club 2
74A East 4th St, New York, NY 10003-8903
Curated and Hosted by Dan Fishback

The Helix Queer Performance Network
gathers some of the most exciting voices from NYC’s queer performance world for two weeks of theater, comedy, music, dance and conversation.

For the fifth year in a row, we celebrate the legacy of community theatrics, multiple generations of queer genius, and the precocious audacity of the millennial mind. Each night of La MaMa's Squirts features a different inter-generational pairing--six nights of duets to mend the queer generation gap, or at least bedazzle it. Helix is a collaboration between La MaMa, BAX/Brooklyn Arts Exchange and the Hemispheric Institute of Performance & Politics
