ANT Fest is four non-stop, throw-down weeks of live entertainment mayhem, featuring fresh material from the next wave of dynamic, indie-theater makers.
All New Talent, all the time.
FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS:
The Church of the Holy Glory
Monday, June 11
Real-life, longtime friends Raja, Cheo and Joel blend music, comedy and (of course) praise dance into a fantastical, high-energy meditation on the taboos of faith, identity, community and sex — and how they relate to their lives in New York City.
Misogynoir
Friday, June 22
Being Black is tough. Being a Woman is tough. But being a Black Woman is its own special cocktail of oppression. Using their kaleidoscopic sense of humor to dissect media, society and their own relationship, real-life couple Sam and Tabatha search to discover what’s at the core of misogynoir
My Straighties
Saturday, June 23
A straighty is any man who is straight, kind and affectionate. Ryan has a lot of straighties, but he doesn’t have a boyfriend. How did this happen? With a rainbow cape and a six-pack of PBR, Ryan revisits his fraternity past as he interrogates masculinity, intimacy and brotherhood. Come and bro out. Cuddling is encouraged.
