Weekend 2 PRACTICES:
Monique Jenkinson + Mica Sigourney
QUEENT!
January 12, 12:30-5:30pm
A workshop about how to be on stage, and what to do with your hands. And your eyes. A workshop for dancers, wannabe queens, and anyone who walks across stages. Fauxnique and Vivvy have culled performance technique and theory from years of drag performance and stage time. In this workshop we practice performance technique to: enhance embodied presence on stage, consider impulses from the imagination, lip sync with your elbows, become your own spotlight. The class ends with a 2.5 hour LIVE IN PERSON simultaneous makeup tutorial performance by Vivvy and Fauxnique.
Monique Jenkinson is Fauxnique. She performs in a variety of contexts locally, nationally and internationally, most recently in her feminist cabaret show The F Word at ART/Harvard and her most recent work Girl (a collaboration with Marc Kate) at Joe Goode Annex. She is writing a drag memoir for Amethyst Editions/Feminist Press.
Mica Sigourney is VivvyAnne ForeverMORE!- co-owner of the Stud Bar and hostess of Vivvy’s Grand Opening and FACES. S/he performs and makes works in Sweden, Ireland and SF mostly. Check out micasigourney.com or vivvys.com for more info. She’s great at weddings.
