Performance artist Jason Jenn brings to vivid life on stage the mercurial wit, wonder, whimsy, and wisdom of James Broughton’s poetry in a profound and provocative theatrical spectacle. Broughton was an award-winning poetic filmmaker and avowed pansexual. He was a notable member of the San Francisco Renaissance, Radical Faeries, CMG, & Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence communities.
Broughton’s work speaks to us with a most beguiling trickster charm, both devoutly spiritual and sexually liberated in delicious ways, with themes as relevant as ever in these modern times. The documentary film “Big Joy: The Adventures of James Broughton” illuminates his unique and extraordinary life, and this show translates poetry into a performance art theatrical spectacle allowing audiences to know more about the visionary figure.
NOTE: Show contains sexually liberated themes -nudity – and adult content
