Please join Food for Thought Books Collective in welcoming The Femme Show for an evening of intimate performance of readings, spoken word, erotica and performance art to benefit the FFT Collective.
The Femme Show is the country’s only touring show exploring all aspects of femme identity from a variety of queer perspectives. This is queer art for queer people, that can be challenging, introspective, brazen, funny, sexy, and gritty but always powerful. The Femme Show is delighted to serve up an all-new production featuring a diverse, gender-blending, genre-busting show that will give you new ways and new reasons to think about femininity. Featured performers at Food for Thought Books Collective include Gigi Frost, Johnny Blazes, Alicia Greene and Miel Rose.

Ms. Swingline emerged from the stacks just in time for us to interview her and get you excited about the new show! Plus reading suggestions!
Describe your piece for the new show in 140 characters or less:
Midwest femme realness. I <3 Bruce Springsteen, sparkly cowboy shirts, and awkwardly-awesome burlesque moves.
Describe what the new show will be like:
Brilliant, funny, sexy, and fierce!
What are 5 essential things you’ll be bringing to the show?
1. The aforementioned sparkly cowboy shirt
2. New lipstick + lipgloss! (Last time I bought new makeup was for last year’s Femme Show. I sense a tradition in the making.)
3. Snacks…perhaps some pita chips & carrots to go with all of that hummus?
4. Something to read — Dreamworlds of Alabama and Breakfast at Mimi’s were my Portland backstage-downtime reading
5. Pasties
Why should people come to this show?
Because we’re taking risks and trying new things, and it’s going to be beautiful and amazing! So you can watch us perform daring feats of physical strength, emotional honesty, and sartorial invention. Because you‘ll be a better – or at least a more attentive, enthusiastic, and engaged – audience than the cats who’ve been observing our living-room rehearsals.
*note from Maggie: Actually, Stella did not say that, the Boss did in “Open All Night.” Bruuuuuuce and queer femme identity and critical interpretations of burlesque are my three favorite things!
