Laughing & Crying is a live art event exploring the emotional and physical cleansing released through cathartic hysteria. This piece will involve over 25 artists including opera singers, drag artists, comedians, musicians, actors, and dancers, as well as artists presenting visual work on gallery walls. With immersive sonic and video installation spaces that will take you on an intimate journey, large scale performances, and opportunities to engage and join the celebration over the course of the evening. The performance is non-linear, and allows the audience the freedom to guide themselves through the venue and experience each installation at their own pace. The variety of performance tableaux includes an Opera Battle, Tranimal Drag Queen Photo Booth, and Hysteria Outbreak. Thank you all who took part in making it a reality!
