David and Me is a one-person show theatricalising aspects of the life of artist David Wojnarowicz and the artist’s own life. Wojnarowicz (1954-1992) created a prolific body of work across visual arts, performance, non-fiction writing, music, film and queer activism while the AIDS epidemic upended arts and queer communities under a federal government that criminally neglected the marginalised. Performance includes text, movement and projection. Immersive experience – the audience chooses moments/stories performed by the actor in an organic/chance-based order, creating a fireside, communal feel.
