Come see The Illusion by Tony Kushner, at SCC's Erickson Theatre! 7:30PM
(Buy tickets via their website)
The Illusion is theatre at its most delightful! Entertaining, witty, fast-paced, and provocative, Tony Kushner’s adaptation of Pierre Corneille’s 17th-century comedy revels in the magic which unites the alchemist’s world with our own. Stupefied as we all are by the never-ending spectacle which has come to dominate our daily lives, we often fail to see that all power is merely a kind of performance. Theatre is the playful logic of that power, and if you feel like you’ve been needing a reminder of, or initiation to, its inimitable magic, then come participate in The Illusion, and be sated.

Stoup Capitol Hill’s June art show, Broadway x Union, features twenty-two artworks from artists working across the mediums of photography, painting, illustration, and sculpture. Each artwork adheres to one of two themes: “Union” or “Broadway.” Union, in the sense of community, togetherness, and strength, and Broadway, as in bright, attention-grabbing, and bold. Through Broadway x Union, Stoup Capitol Hill transforms from being physically located at the intersection of Broadway and Union to being a space that integrates the two ideals. All artists are based in the PNW. Some works for sale.

THE FACTORY PRESENTS: t4t— a group art show curated by @alpastries opening Thursday, June, 12th from 6-10pm
t4t— short for “trans for trans”— refers to relationships between trans people. The term originated as a way for trans people to find and connect with one another online for dating purposes. Today, t4t has grown into something broader. It signifies solidarity between trans people— a mantra of trans-centered love, friendship, community, and care.
t4t is an emotional safety net.
It’s where we feel truly seen in a world that so often wishes to erase us.
It’s trans people loving one another, despite the hate so frequently directed our way.
It’s trans people centering each other, in contrast to the marginalization we face.
t4t is an amplification of pure trans joy— a celebration of trans community, where we are stronger together.
t4t is trans people giving each other our roses.
t4t is a group art show made by and for our community, and is open to everyone who arrives with care, curiosity, and respect. It’s open to all who support and celebrate trans lives— and closed to anything less.
t4t is curated by Al Pastries and features artwork by Amanda James Parker, Erin Hurley, Gemini Sister, Glitter, June September, Karl Cassel, Kirby Stolzoff, Margo, María Dolores A. Matienzo, Molly Vaughan, Oli Lommen Anderson Bigley, Oliver Hyde, Olivia of Liv Healing Arts, Puck Bartelby, Ralph Houser, Raqa Down, Red Angus, Rivka Clifton, Rowen Foster, Silver Barcohav, Siobhan Teahan, Swerv Wizely, Timm, Val (Valeria Espinal), Zander Salander, and Al Pastries.
