BigKid Dance, a contemporary project-based company in Philadelphia, is embarking on the development of their latest work-in-progress, if I die before the revolution. The piece reflections on the devastating impact of the AIDS epidemic, exploring the anguish and helplessness experienced by queer individuals unable to care for or be with their dying partners. In memory of the untold stories and lives cut short, the work also offers an imaginative portrayal of survival, love, and solidarity within the queer community. Throughout the week, the artist will have public engagements to connect with community members. This engagement of BigKid Dance is made possible in part through the Special Presenter Initiatives program of Mid Atlantic Arts with support from the National Endowment for the Arts and DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities.
