Sending peace & blessings your way! I wanted to take a moment to invite you to a staged reading of my CUNY MFA thesis project, pxso: PhoeniX rising in ScorpiO – on Sunday, Nov 21st from 6-8:30pm.
Description: A depressed Father rediscovers humanity on the wings of a PhoeniX. pxso: PhoeniX rising in ScorpiO offers an intimate collection of stories about a Fathers perspective in raising a daughter with Charge Syndrome, Deafblindness and the enduring human spirit. pxso is a new solo production by interdisciplinary artist Kilusan Bautista, pxso fuses the oral tradition of storytelling with the creative poetics of multimedia arts to express an unconditional labor of love honoring his daughter and a statement of solidarity for disability rights.
On Nov 21st, I am honored to be joined by my wife & artist Lia Bautista, as she shares a Mothers perspective in raising a daughter with special needs. Thanks to PIMA alumni Teerapat Parnmongkol, the Judson Memorial Church has welcomed us into the Assembly Hall for this introduction to our upcoming Spring 2022 productions. And finally, we will have American Sign Language Interpretation by Susanne Morgan Morrow and Jacinda Damas as we strive to represent accessibility for all within the live performance arts.
*NOTE: if you cannot make it in person but would still like to attend, we will have a private zoom link for community members and funders/partners. Please email me directly at jb.kilusan@gmail.com, thank you so much for your support!
