"Let's Hear It For the Boys is so beautiful and quietly radical. Not only do you get to experience an entire night of top-tier New York City performers, but you know that the money you spend for your ticket is funding an entirely transmasculine and trans man cohort of theater workers. You don't see many performances that are so consistently embodying the values they present onstage." — Stage Left Report

I got to be a part of two very trans, very queer readings today! LES BI(T)CHES this afternoon and A MUSICAL FOR HENRIETTA this evening. It was an honor to sing this song alongside Lisa and Adam, Murphy Smith, Ada Westfall, and Bernie Wagenblast (of MTA voice fame!). 💛

I've been a part of FIGHT BACK since the pilot event and I've talked about it before, but this month is special because there are THREE chances to check it out! 🩷
//
You've never experienced anything like this before. The premise of this theatrical experiment is simple: It’s the March 13, 1989 meeting of ACT UP New York, the passionate group taking direct action to fight AIDS. But — and here’s the experiment — there are no actors and there’s no audience. Everyone who comes is a participant at the meeting. You'll get a biographical profile of your persona and instructions for how to engage. Some (self-selected) people will also get details about specialized roles they’ll have at the meeting. All of the personas are actual people who were (or likely were) at the meeting.
Everyone uses some of the skills an actor uses, and there’s a bit of preparation involved, but you absolutely don’t need to be an actor to participate.
• May 4th, 11th, 18th
• 7pm at the Center (208 West 13th Street, Manhattan)
• $19.89 suggested donation, with cost alternatives available when you sign up

HUGE series update coming May 4th, keep an eye out!
The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
