The Queering Dance Festival: FROLIC!
A black and white photo has splashes of pink, coral, purple, and blue on the bottom left and upper right corners. Two dancers are included in the graphic. The dancer on the left is wearing an open white button-up shirt, exposing a white tank top underneath. This dancer is also wearing dark baggy pants. Their left arm is bent, but simultaneously outstretched above their head. As they reach towards their back, their chin is slightly upturned and their eyes closed. The dancer on the right is also wearing a white tank top and a skirt. This dancer leans forward with one arm and foot forward, as if leaning in to listen to something quiet.

This year’s festival features eight artists across two exciting programs. From exploring dyke heartbreak through Afrobeat poetry, to drag embodiment of queer Xicanx cowboys, FROLIC! artists bring fearless depth, joyful experimentation, and mythic memory to the stage.
