Faux Real
An evening with San Francisco's Fauxnique, alter ego of performance artist and dancer Monique Jenkinson, that proves that a biological woman can be a drag queen!
Though women have inspired and served as role models for generations of males to transgress, elaborate and entertain, drag is ironically often the ultimate boys club. A biological woman who is a drag queen? I don't get it. Does she just ... feel that way?
In Faux Real, Fauxnique reaches into her drag bag for some answers to this vexing question and pulls out some favorite performance gems. Not only does Fauxnique 'lipsynch for her life,' but she also dances, sings and offers some philosophical musings on artifice and authenticity. Faux Real revels in the tension between the glamour of performance and the intimacy of presence.
Be prepared for high heel stunts, hero worship, remembrance of gay prom dates past and fervid femme feminism.
